Native Plant Rescue

Protecting local genetics.

Restoring ecological heritage.

Every property has an ecological history. Let's work together to protect, restore, and enjoy it.

When development happens on our lands, an entire ecosystem of local biodiversity can easily be lost.

At Green Feet Ecosystem Services, we see development as an opportunity for collaboration, as rich repositories of native Ontario flora, history, and life that deserves our care.

Our Native Plant Rescue work emerges from the pressure between a growing and developing world, and a sincere care from people who live here to protect our environments.

This work bridges the gap between necessary land development or change and ecological restoration.

We work with developers, municipalities, and private landowners to salvage high-value native plants before construction begins, giving plants a second life in naturalization projects, community spaces, food forests and ecological gardens.

What makes Rescued plants so valuable?

Wouldn’t it just be easier to buy new ones from a commercial nursery?

Locally Adapted Genetics

Rescued plants have spent generations adapting to the exact soil, climate, and pest pressures of our regional environment, giving them a vastly superior survival rate..

They provide Quality Habitat

Mature native rescues immediately support local pollinators, birds, and soil microbes

Preserving Rare Seed Stocks

Many development sites contain unique local ecotypes or medicinal native plants that cannot be bought in stores. Rescuing them helps keep these rare and unique places alive in the region.

They can be counted towards Low Impact Development goals

Rescued and surviving species can be accounted for in offsetting, replanting, and carbon sequestration goals, as well as can their lower carbon footprint.
