Native Plant Adoptions.
Save Desert Natives From The Landfill
We receive notice of development project sites that are clearing the land and often find discarded native plants within the Mojave Desert. Although our property has become a native plant refuge we are always looking for locals within the Mojave Desert who want to adopt natives plants. The plant adoption is for locals within the Morongo Basin and parts of the Coachella Valley.
If you are interested in adopting native flora fill out the form below and include what native plants you are interested in, what part of the area you are in.We will contact you when the plants become available.
We come across many medicinal plants that cannot be relocated or propagated. If you are local herbalist wanting medicinal flora include that information in the registration form.
You can help us by notifying us if you see any development occuring where native flora is being cleared.
