Mossy Oak Nativ Nurseries began as all of the segments of the Mossy Oak enterprise,
with a fistful of dirt and a deep rooted desire to get people closer to nature.
Our founder, Toxey Haas, was, and still is, utterly obsessed with resource and land management.
It inspired him to create a unique camouflage pattern called Bottomland in 1986 and has since continued
to drive the entire Mossy Oak enterprise to offer folks better ways to get closer to nature.
This intense desire to get people closer to nature is the reason Nativ Nurseries was founded.
For years, Toxey had collected special seed and hand grew many plants and trees in his backyard.
As Mossy Oak grew, we needed a source for plants and trees for our own properties; one that carried
the many wildlife varieties that you couldn’t find readily available and one that appreciated their
effects on habitat and food sources. Not only did we need a source for these "naturally beneficial"
plants and trees, but we wanted a source that would provide us with genetically advanced varieties
from superior parent trees; varieties that had preferred characteristics like taste, vigorous growth,
health and early abundant mast production; characteristics that wildlife and outdoor enthusiasts prefer.
Nativ Nurseries’ mission is to provide landowners and managers with plants for building and/or
restoration of habitat. The plants we offer are also great for using in your own backyard;
creating a naturally landscaped setting that is not only visually pleasing but great for wildlife.
Of course, we don’t just want to provide you with a tree or plant, we want to provide you with a tree
or plant that will thrive once you put it in its home. That’s why our team of biologists and customer
service personnel will work with you to be sure the plants you choose match the conditions where you
intend to plant it.

closer to nature in more ways than one.....that’s why we say, It’s Not a Passion. It’s An Obsession.
