Hello Rebecca,
This is Todd Anderson with OSU small farms, to better assist with more specific materials I think a more Indepth conversation on your property and goals (for instance are you looking for more native landscaping plants, restoring a riparian area bordering a pasture or horticulture operation, wanting to do oak savannah restoration and planting or looking to manage a woodlot) would be helpful.
In the meantime, I believe Polk County Soil and Water Conservation and the USDA NRCS would be helpful, along with the attached link from extension on native plants.
After we talk, I might be able to connect you with what you are looking for.
