Open books, honest work
We're a small, young nonprofit — so we'd rather show you everything than ask you to take our word for it.
The paperwork, in plain sight

What a $10 seed pack actually buys
100% of public donations fund direct conservation work. Here's what goes into every pack:
Native seed
Locally sourced Sonoran Desert seed for all five species — the biggest share of every pack.
Packaging & planting guide
Seed envelopes and a printed, beginner-friendly planting guide timed to our desert seasons.
Postage & distribution
Mailing packs to homes across Arizona and handing them out free at community events.
What's left grows the program
Anything beyond pack costs goes to growing more seed and reaching more neighborhoods — never overhead first.
Labeled honestly, updated as we grow
We only call a program "live" when it's actually delivering. Everything else is labeled for exactly what it is.
