Adapting to a changing world

Rainfall around Northwest Arkansas is becoming more erratic, with heavier storms and more intense dry spells in between.

Ozark Roots is to here to help, providing locally sourced, wild-type plants that are all native to NWA and adapted to drought and other climate extremes.

Protect the Ozarks in your own yard.

Used wisely, native plants are a powerful tool to make a difference in almost any environmental issue you can think of.

Climate

Ozark Roots’ deep-rooted plants absorb carbon dioxide, cool their surroundings and are chosen based on species’ adaptations to a changing climate.

Biodiversity

Native plants are the threads of an ecological tapestry, supporting the diversity and abundance of pollinators, birds, fish and countless other organisms.

Air and water

From the tips of their roots to the tips of their leaves, native plants capture pollutants and help keep soils and nutrients where they belong.
