I found an edifying post about the differences between reclamation and restoration on the blog for an Idaho company specializing in restoration with native plants (see the entry for March 9, 2010). There’s also a discussion about starting an unconventional business and how it’s easy to get sidetracked by all the free advice from strangers.

Conservation Seeding and Restoration is about seven years old and is “dedicated to restoring properly functioning, sustainable native habitats.” CSR does everything from project design to genome-specific seed collection and plant propagation to noxious weed eradication to nonlethal wildlife control. In other words, you’re not going to find this wide a variety of restoration services at too many other companies.
