FY1999 Great Lakes Projects

Go Native! With Native Plants

 

Go Native! With Native Plants, Phase II (GL985594-02-0: $150,000)
Recipient: Michigan Association of Conservation Districts
Project Period: 10/1/99 to 9/30/01
Project Officer: Danielle Green (312-886-7594)

Go Native! With Native Plants is an expansion of a project previously funded by GLNPO in FY98. In this current project, Michigan Association of Conservation Districts (MACD) will continue to develop prototypes of successful native plants use in ecosystem restoration and native landscaping in each of their conservation districts. In this project:

  1. MACD will expand the project to an estimated 30 Districts (counties);
  2. Expand work with private growers of native plant material to promote an increase in native species availability;
  3. Intensify native plant training and education program for Districts, NRCS staff, other partnering agencies and landowners;
  4. Expand collections of plant materials as needed to stimulate commercially available sources of local genotypes; and
  5. Share project information with other Conservation Districts, especially in the Great Lakes and Midwestern states.
