Wild Ones Green Bay Chapter

Green Bay, WI

Native Plant Society

About

Wild Ones Green Bay Chapter is dedicated to educating the public about the benefits of preserving and restoring biodiversity through native plant communities, starting in local yards and gardens. Based in Green Bay, Wisconsin, this nonprofit chapter of Wild Ones Natural Landscapers empowers residents to create pollinator-friendly landscapes using native plants that support wildlife year-round. Through free public meetings, educational presentations, and community events, Wild Ones Green Bay helps gardeners understand the importance of native plant selection, proper seed sourcing, and sustainable landscaping practices. The chapter actively promotes alternatives to temporary solutions like 'No Mow May,' instead advocating for comprehensive habitat restoration that provides food and shelter for native pollinators, birds, and other wildlife. By encouraging neighbors to work together—even starting with just three native plants—Wild Ones Green Bay demonstrates how individual gardeners can collectively make a significant impact on biodiversity conservation and ecosystem health.
