About Us

Green Seed Gardens is our family-run native plant nursery and habitat garden business.

For more than a decade, we’ve been growing plants, designing gardens, getting our hands dirty, and learning how to create spaces that are good for people and wildlife.

Today, our focus is native plants, habitat-focused gardens, and restoration. We grow Oregon native plants without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or neonicotinoids, and without peat-based soils.

Our Goal

To make it easier for more people to grow beautiful, living gardens that support wildlife and give something back to the places we call home.

Emily Booth

I’m a designer, gardener, professional weeder, mom, and one of the people behind Green Seed Gardens.

I’ve spent the last decade-plus growing plants, designing gardens, and building a community around the things I love most: beautiful gardens, native plants, and creating spaces that support people and wildlife.

These days, you’ll find me doing a little bit of everything at Green Seed—from up-potting plants and designing to marketing, planning events, connecting with our community, and dreaming up what’s next.

I believe gardens can be beautiful, a little wild, incredibly useful, and full of life. My favorite part of the job is sharing our garden, what we’re growing, and what we’re learning with other people who love plants, gardens, and community as much as I do.

Austin Booth

I’m the Head of Nursery Operations at Green Seed Gardens, where I spend most of my days growing plants, working with native species, and figuring out how to get things from seed to garden.

I grew up on a small farm and started working in landscaping early on. After a few detours, I went back to school for Natural Resources at Oregon State University, where I focused on wildlife, habitat restoration, and native plant identification.

These days, I’m usually up to my elbows in plants—propagating, growing, educating, and helping bring gardens and restoration projects to life. I especially love working with native plants and creating spaces that restore habitat, support wildlife, and still feel good for people to be in.
