Kristin Currin speaks about the importance of incorporating Pacific Northwest native plants into your garden and landscaping to help the birds, bees, and local ecosystem as a whole.

Kristin Currin and Andrew Merritt, authors of The Pacific Northwest Native Plant Primer, are the co-founders of Humble Roots Nursery, a native plant nursery in the Columbia River Gorge recognized for its efforts in sustainability and promoting native plants. While ethically propagating many important species, their passion for plants has involved them with innumerable native plant endeavors including pollinator and conservation plantings of all shapes and sizes, school gardens, backyard habitats, restoration projects, and rare plant conservation.Links:
