We may be familiar with turkey tail(Trametes versicolor) for its abundant health properties such as a powerful antioxidant, immune system support, and inflammation treatment. 🍃🍂

But turkey tail's presence in forests is also crucial to woodland health.

Planning a new wildflower meadow? Fall can be an excellent time to plant perennial native seeds!

Meadows are one of our favorite projects because they are continually aesthetically and ecologically valuable. Site preparation most often entails soil restoration, and we can amend damaged and compacted soil. Part of our vision is to replace as many American lawns with meadows as possible. Let us know if you'd like to see that happen too.
