With a $1,500.00 startup budget and a $75.00 computer purchased from the Salvation Army, Conservation Seeding & Restoration, Inc was officially incorporated on the 1st of January 2003 by Steven Paulsen, Starla Paulsen, and Kevin Osborne.

Today CSR, Inc. is a viable fully fledged vertically integrated native restoration company. CSR, Inc. has provided services to almost every demographic and market imaginable in the western United States. CSR, Inc has been integral in developing native ecology communities for oil and gas restoration fields, butterfly gardens, and home landscapes.

Restoring the Planet one Native plant at a time is a central part of CSR, Inc.’s business model. It is an important part of our business to know that what we do will out-last our children’s children, and bring us as a community closer to the land. This allows us to perceive and participate in the world around us in a way that few in these times are able to experience.
