Garden for Wildlife's efforts are not just about beautifying spaces; they're critical in our fight to prevent the extinction of wildlife species and confront climate change.
The simplest, most tangible and effective action you can take to help the planet is to restore whatever part of the environment you control with native plants.
Native plants use about half as much water as non-native plants like turf grass and have longer roots adapted to reach more than a foot underground to access water.
Native plants — those that occur naturally in a region and are not species imported from other parts of the globe — are the core of a wildlife habitat garden
To make your garden more eco-friendly, there are many easy adjustments you can make to support the environment and improve biodiversity. Growing native plants is one of them.
Creating a backyard wildlife habitat can be quite simple. Planting native plants and nectar-rich flowers, supplying food and water sources, and avoiding pesticides are some of the keystones.
