Not So Hollow Farm
Not So Hollow Farm is the name of our native plant nursery and is a division of enviroscape inc.

A native plant is defined as a species of fauna that was already established before colonization. There are numerous benefits to the use of Native Plants. Native plants have grown and evolved in the area for generations and therefore are more prepared to face the elements. As a result they are much hardier and less finicky to care for. The wildlife in the area has also evolved along side these plants, and because of this has formed bonds with them. Most butterflies have a specific plant species from which they collect nectar for their offspring. There are many birds that will feed directly from local trees for seed, nectar or fruit, but won’t use the bird feeder you’ve bought to attract them. These plants also work together to grow as natural plant communities. Most of the trees won’t grow their leaves until after the wildflowers have had an adequate amount of time to flower before they’re covered by shade. Finally, of course, there is the fact that all of these plants and animals combine to make a completely functioning ecosystem. Why fight thousands of years of evolution?

Here at enviroscape, we have a nursery populated entirely by Native Plants. As landscape consultants, we are aware of the demand for Native Plants, and the current difficulty in attaining them. Since we have over 35 years’ experience with plants and what is required to raise them, we decided to solve the problem by growing them ourselves.
