About Nativa Fronteira
A family business built on one simple idea: the land does best with the plants that belong to it.
From one tired pasture to a regional native seed company
In 2009, Scott Walker took over a family property on State Highway 239, a few miles outside Kenedy. Decades of continuous grazing had left the soil bare and the fields choked with brush. Instead of planting another stand of non-native grass, Scott began collecting seed from native remnants along fence lines and creek banks.
Neighbors noticed the difference within a few seasons — thicker grass, better forage in dry summers, and quail coming back. Requests for seed and advice followed, and Nativa Fronteira Native Seed & Land Co. was born.
Today our team operates a nursery, seed cleaning and storage facility, and a restoration crew with our own no-till drills and equipment. We still answer the phone ourselves and still walk every property before we quote.
What we stand for
Local first
We favor South Texas ecotypes proven in our heat, rain patterns and soils.
Honesty
Clear estimates, labeled seed, and realistic timelines — no surprise fees.
Patience
Native landscapes take time. We stay with you through establishment.
Stewardship
Every project should leave the land healthier than we found it.
