Helping You Choose Plants to Build Thriving Food Webs and Sustainable Ecosystems

OUR INITIATIVE

What We Do

Our platform makes it simple to choose the right plants for your needs and biome. Using comprehensive scientific data, we guide you toward plants that support diverse insect and mammalian herbivores. These herbivores, in turn, sustain higher trophic levels , helping to build resilient and biodiverse food webs and ecosystems.

We help you to choose plants that enable nature to thrive.

Plants are the essential link between life in the soil and herbivores that form the foundation of terrestrial food webs.

While most plants play vital environmental roles — such as soil stabilization and fertilization, water system management, carbon sequestration, climate regulation, and providing shade and shelter for animals — only a small portion of plants are actually ea ten by herbivores.

We estimate that only about 20% of plant species are eaten by herbivores. Without careful selection, there ’ s roughly an 80% chance of planting species that won ’ t contribute to sustaining food webs or supporting the restoration of animal biodiversity

OUR SERVICES

What We Offer

Consulting

While we continually expand the Plant Selector Library, only a fraction of the 5000+ plants in our database are currently displayed on our website. Our consulting services leverage the entire database to help you develop customized biodiversity plans specific to your area.

Monitoring

You can only manage what you measure — and that’s where we can help. At ABERI, we utilize a diverse range of monitoring systems to track biodiversity trends and environmental health over time.

Biodiversity Assessments

Would you like to upskill your team in biodiversity assessment and management? At ABERI, we have a long-standing history in environmental training and can work with you to empower your team to conduct their own ecological assessments with confidence.
