Hungry Hook Farm is dedicated to promoting the native plants of the Eastern Woodlands. Every backyard and each landscape has the potential to contribute to plant and animal biodiversity in a positive way. Native plants are an integral part of biodiversity because they are the building blocks of a healthy and sustainable ecosystem. Genetic diversity is also important for the continuation of native plant species. We work to ensure this diversity by growing plants from open-pollinated seed collected from local ecotypes whenever possible.

Hungry Hook Farm makes a conscious effort to grow all plants from local, sustainably-collected seed whenever possible. Our potting soil is peat-free and all plants are organically-grown. Discounts are available for non-profit organizations. Advice on the right plants for your site is always free.

Hungry Hook Farm is currently engaged in research involving germination and seed increase of native annuals--both forb and graminoid species that thrive in areas of recent soil disturbance. We are also working with a local agency to propagate Viola species for habitat restoration.
