How Native Plants Help Reclaim Water Resilience in Kansas City In Kansas City, Carl Stafford and My Region Wins! are using native planting as a tool to address two growing environmental challenges: stormwater runoff and future water insecurity. Through its Go Green Campaign, the organization is encouraging residents, business owners, and community groups to explore the role that native grasses and plants can play in improving local water cycles and restoring ecological balance. The initiative also invites reflection on the cultural and historical dimensions of urban landscaping, challenging the legacy of non-native species like Kentucky bluegrass, and making space for art, equity, and ecological restoration to intersect.
