Protection and enhancement of our nation's waters for the livelihood and recreation of all inhabitants has become a top priority. At Freshwater Farms we use an ecological or whole system approach to wetlands science. Wetland function and value is almost always linked to upland vegetation. Our native plant propagation nursery and native seed bank both carry a diverse compliment of not only wetland, but also riparian and upland plants.
