Wild Ones St. Louis Chapter

St. Louis, Missouri

Native Plant Society

About

Wild Ones St. Louis is one of the largest native plant chapters in the United States, dedicated to connecting people and plants for a healthy planet since 1998. Based in St. Louis, Missouri, this inspiring community of native plant gardeners works to educate and support homeowners in developing sustainable native landscapes that provide essential habitat for butterflies, birds, bees, and other wildlife. As urban development increasingly fragments natural ecosystems, Wild Ones St. Louis addresses this critical need by offering monthly newsletters, community gatherings, native plant grants for schools and nonprofits, and annual plant sales. Through collaborative partnerships with regional organizations, educational events like the St. Louis Native Plant Garden Tour, and volunteer opportunities, the chapter empowers residents to restore ecological balance in their own yards while building a thriving community of conservation-minded gardeners.
