Ontario's guide to growing non-invasive species of plants

If native plant communities are replaced by invasive plant infestations, biodiversity declines and habitats change. Invasive plants are more than “plants out of place”.

We have compiled a list of nurseries in our area that grow Native Plants.

Join the Winter Sowers Facebook group to learn about ways to sow your seeds in the winter and get a head start on the next growing season.  If you are gardening for Nature and planting native plants, this works very well with Native species. Most of our native plants in the Grand Erie Master Gardeners growing zones do very well with the freeze and thaws that nature provides.
