Over time, our cultivation expanded to include a broad selection of aquatic, wetland, woodland, and prairie plants suited for restoration work.

Purpose-driven native plant supply, led by experience

As the founder, I built Marshland Transplant Aquatic Nursery with a clear goal: to make native plant sourcing more dependable for restoration professionals. Every project deserves reliable plants and clear communication. That belief continues to guide our work today.

I’m Thomas Traxler, and I started this nursery after years of working alongside project managers who struggled to find a consistent native plant supply. My background spans both restoration contracting and nursery operations, giving me a firsthand understanding of the challenges teams face when sourcing plants at scale. Those experiences shaped how we built our systems, focusing on uniform plant quality, dependable availability, and transparent logistics.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with agencies, engineers, and environmental planners on restoration initiatives that require both ecological expertise and precise scheduling. My academic training in ecology provided a strong foundation for understanding plant communities, while field experience reinforced the importance of adaptability and collaboration. Today, our nursery continues to grow with that same mindset. Every order, every partnership, and every project reflects our commitment to helping restoration professionals succeed while supporting healthier landscapes across the region.
