SOW WILD NATIVES – IT’S TIME!
EcoRadio KC is glad to encourage awareness and protection of our world. Our goal is to ensure our listeners are aware of how we can create a sustainable present for a sustainable future! We experience more extreme temperatures because of global energy increase. As we move to the future, it will take all of us to make the world habitable for millennia to come. Thanks for listening to EcoRadio KC!
On February 2nd, 2026, host Terri Wilke will speak with Tracy Twombly about how to grow native plants from seed for your garden. Tracy and her husband, Aaron, are owners of Sow Wild Natives, a native plant nursery located at 6201 Noland Rd, Kansas City, MO, not far from the sports stadiums, 2 miles south of 40 HWY, atop the hill south of 61st ST & north of Little Blue Rd.

Sow Wild Natives opened in 2017 and they sell mostly Kansas and Missouri ecotypes. Tracy has generously offered to speak to our listeners about how they collect seeds, how the seeds are cleaned and stored, how to start, or propagate, the seeds and how and when to set the young plants outside in your garden.
Why grow native plants?
From spring, ephemeral plants, whether colorful carpets on the forest floor, to the hardiest prairie grasses and colorful flowers swaying in the summer breeze, to the majestic oak standing tall for centuries and everything in between, natives provide a beauty that defines a place and makes it unique. We are blessed by the beauty of the plants that call Missouri and Kansas home. They are native to our ecological area however; our landscape has been increasingly devoted to non-natives which require more water and lack diversity.
Whether you are interested in starting these plants from seed or just want to learn about which natives are easier to grow and where to plant them, tune in and learn!
EcoRadio KC supports the work for a future in which humans flourish as members of a thriving ecosphere. We are all in this together and it will take all of us to make the world safe. This will be a great radio hour!
