Matt Albright, who is pictured above, dedicated 20 years to Olympic National Park, where he established a native plant propagation program and helped to restore vegetation to many impacted areas throughout the park. In his honor, the Matt Albright Native Plant Nursery has been named to recognize his memory and legacy. The nursery continues to supply native seeds and plants to the Olympic Peninsula and beyond!
