Restoring the Land, Empowering Communities

Cultivating ecological and cultural resilience through native plants across Southeastern North Carolina

About Roots, Seeds & Soil

We cultivate, distribute, and restore native plants across Southeastern North Carolina to strengthen ecosystems, support pollinators, and empower communities through environmental education and Indigenous-informed stewardship.

Roots, Seeds & Soil provides free and low-cost native plants, trees, seeds, training, and educational outreach to schools, tribal programs, municipalities, community groups, and families across the region. By reconnecting people with native plants and ecological practices, we help restore the land and foster a culture of environmental care.
