Grassroots Ecology

Grassroots Ecology San Francisco Bay Area Native Plants

Grassroots Ecology (formerly the Acterra Stewardship Program) is a fiscally sponsored project of Acterra: Action for a Healthy Planet. Serving the Silicon Valley area, Grassroots Ecology involves, educates and inspires the public to create healthy ecosystems in our urban communities, and natural lands and waters.

This app is a guide to plants that are native to the San Francisco Bay Area that Acterra recommends for landscaping projects. Many of them are available at Grassroots Ecology’s nursery. In addition to photos and details about each plant, the guide recommends plants for a variety of common environments and uses.
