Greenhouse Grower to Grower Podcast: Meadow Lab Founder Claire Chambers on Native Plants and Sustainability

By Brian D. Sparks|August 31, 2025

Greenhouse Grower has entered the world of podcasts with the launch of our “Greenhouse Grower to Grower” series. In the podcast, which will be delivered every other week, we talk to growers from across the controlled-environment industry about market trends, innovation, their biggest challenges and opportunities, and more.

Claire Chambers is the founder of Meadow Lab, which develops plant products that accelerate the creation of biodiverse and high-performance landscapes. Meadow Lab is focused on the native plant space and has developed a wildflower sod that makes installing meadows faster, easier, and more scalable. I recently spoke with Claire about trends in the native plant category, and how growers can balance sustainability with production and economic challenges.

You can listen to the episode here, or you can find it wherever you listen to podcasts. We hope you enjoy it!
