Homegrown National Park

Homegrown National Park is a grassroots call-to-action to regenerate biodiversity and ecosystem function by planting native plants and creating new ecological networks. We call for a collective effort of individual homeowners, property owners, land managers, farmers, and anyone with some soil to plant in to start a new habitat by planting native plants and removing most invasive plants. It is the largest cooperative conservation project ever conceived or attempted. Our initial goal is 20 million acres of native plantings in the U.S. This represents approximately ½ of the green lawns of privately-owned properties. The HNP Map is an interactive community-based visual that will show each person’s contribution to planting native by State, County and Zip Code. The website also includes information about native plants, a shop (with yard signs), and tools for social media campaigns and events. This organization is co-founded by Doug Tallamy.
