FAQs

What is Ecological Restoration?

Ecological restoration encompasses the establishment of new native plantings and the repair of damaged ecosystems to restore them to their original, healthy state.

How Does Ecological Restoration Benefit the Environment?

Ecological restoration enhances biodiversity, improves ecosystem resilience, and mitigates the impacts of environmental degradation. It contributes to cleaner air and water, supports wildlife habitats, and promotes overall ecosystem health.

Why Is Ecological Restoration Important?

Ecological restoration is vital for combating biodiversity and habitat loss, as well as for restoring essential ecosystem services such as carbon sequestration and stormwater purification. It also addresses environmental challenges like declining insect populations. By sustaining healthy ecosystems, we ensure a thriving environment for both current and future generations.

What Are the Differences Between Deep Root Systems and Turf Root Systems, and How Do They Impact Ecosystem Health?

Turf root systems typically extend only about 6 to 12 inches deep, while native plants feature deep root systems that can penetrate 5 to 15 feet into the soil. These deeper roots promote soil stability, enhance nutrient cycling, facilitate carbon sequestration, and improve water retention. In contrast, shallow turf root systems may contribute to soil erosion and nutrient runoff, negatively impacting ecosystem health.
