Echo Valley Natives

Based on Greenwash Scrub Rating
review this business

18883 S Ferguson Rd
Oregon City, OR 97045

info [at] echovalleynatives [dot] com

Our goal at Echo Valley Natives is to offer a wide variety of quality native plants to the public in hopes that it will minimize the devastating results of wild digging.

We have added beds and potted plantings around the nursery in various micro-climates to demonstrate how native plants might be used. This offers our customers a more realistic look at how and where native plants grow, their growth habits and size, as well as their relationships to birds, fish, and wildlife.

Sustainable Qualification Summary
Echo Valley Natives nursery is located in a quiet little valley on the banks of the Abernathy Creek just outside historic, Oregon City, OR and on the site of the old Abernathy Shingle Mill.

We strive to use biodynamic growing practices with our plant material and reduce impact on the natural environment surrounding the nursery. By using alternative methods to control pests and weeds and limiting the use of fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides we hope to keep the land and creek in balance so that the local birds, fish, wildlife, and beneficial insects will continue to thrive in their natural habitat.

We also donate plants to boy scout tree planting programs and donate plants to schools. We also are getting involved in the Metro Natural Program class.
