🌱 We Donate: Growing Good with Native Plants

Supporting Science, Sustainability, and Stewardship

Submit a Donation Request

💚 Our Mission in Action

At TN Nursery, our love for native plants runs deep. Part of our mission is to ensure these plants serve a bigger purpose—beyond landscapes and gardens. That’s why we proudly donate native plants to:

🌿 Universities

Conducting botanical research or restoration work.

🏛️ Government agencies

Focused on conservation and reforestation.

💼 Nonprofits and mission-based businesses

Building pollinator habitats, rain gardens, and educational gardens.

Every donation is a seed planted toward ecological awareness, scientific discovery, and environmental renewal.

This is not a "free for all program":

If you have a high-traffic gardening or home improvement blog and you'd like some plants donated, we also consider this, but it has to get at least 10K organic visits per month for consideration.

🌎 Why We Donate

We’re more than a nursery—we’re stewards of native biodiversity. Donating plants allows us to:

🔬 Support scientific research

That advances plant biology, ecology, and sustainability.

🐝 Create habitats for pollinators

And native wildlife.

🌾 Encourage native landscaping

To reduce invasive species and preserve ecosystems.

👩‍🌾 Educate the next generation

Of environmentalists, gardeners, and botanists.

Whether it’s a college greenhouse or a nonprofit’s public garden, we love knowing our plants are helping others grow something meaningful.

🌟 Shout-Outs Welcome

We donate without expecting anything in return—but when recipients share a quick mention or link back to TN Nursery, it goes a long way. These simple shout-outs help:

  • Raise awareness of native plant benefits
  • Spread the word about our mission
  • Allow us to continue donating to even more causes

It’s a small gesture that means the world to us (and to future plant recipients!).

“University of Greenfield – Monarch Migration Study”

TN Nursery donated milkweed and Liatris for a research project tracking butterfly behavior.

“PollinatorRevive Nonprofit – Pollinator Rainstation in California”

We provided over 100 perennials to support habitat creation in underserved urban areas. Since monarchs are almost extinct, TN Nursery came to the rescue.

Thousands of bare-root trees are planted in riparian buffers across the Southeast.
