The NRCS eVegGuide (electronic Vegetative Guide) is a tool for finding plants and seeds for NRCS land conservation practices. An eVegGuide report shows recommended plants, seeds, and planting recommendations to implement a particular practice at a chosen location.

The eVegGuide is a sub-section of the California eFOTG (electronic Field Office Technical Guide). It contains the most recent information from the Lockeford Plant Materials Center and the USDA Plants database. Further information and documentation is available from the eFOTG web page.

Please contact us if you need immediate help using the eVegGuide.
