Native Plant Network 

Announces Open Certification


 The Brentwood Native Plant Network announces its open certification period to have your yard certified. If you meet the criteria, the BNPN will provide you with an attractive yard sign, designed by a Brentwood artist, to place in your yard. The signs are sponsored by the town of Brentwood.

Eligibility requirements include:

1. Your yard must have at least 10 different species of native plants, and 2. Your yard must have at least 25 total native plants.

The plants can be a combination of trees, shrubs, and perennials.

Container plants can also count toward the two required criteria if you have a small yard.

We will be certifying yards through Sunday, October 8th, so there is still time to plant native species in your yard. If you want to see if your yard meets the criteria, send an email to greensbrentwood@gmail.com and indicate that you would like to be added to the yard certification list.

About the Network:

Our mission is to restore biodiversity to our community, volunteers and residents are working together to set up the Brentwood Native Plant Network. Volunteers will educate, encourage, and assist residents, apartment owners, businesses and our local governments with planting and documenting native plants on their properties.
