Appalachian Native Plants Inc. is dedicated to demonstrating and providing  education in methods of  preservation, propagation and production of Native Ornamental plant species and also  methods  of ” Sustainable-Organic” food production.

Preservation and production of Native Ornamental plants will be accomplished in the following ways:

1.     Through the process of exploring for, mapping and documenting notable native plant specimens and populations in the wild and in gardens we will aid in the preservation of native plants.

2.     By collecting seed from selected specimens, producing seedling populations and then selecting the “superior” forms from those seedling populations a group of “Stock” plants will be generated and used in a display garden and further plant production.

3.     By networking and sharing plant material and information on production methods with regional growers.

4.     We will offer for sale the best quality native plant “liners” for regional farmers to “grow on” into finished landscape material.

5.     WEB based marketing of the plants will be a central aspect of the business.
