Why Garden For Wildlife?
Watching wildlife in action can be fun and relaxing for everyone. Your habitat may attract beautiful songbirds, butterflies, frogs, and other interesting wildlife for viewing from your very own window.
Replacing grass lawns with native wildflowers, shrubs, and trees will increase the beauty of your property and provide a nurturing refuge for wildlife.
Restoring habitats where commercial and residential development have degraded natural ecosystems can be your way of giving back to wildlife.
Gardening practices that help wildlife, like reducing the use of chemicals, conserving energy and water, and composting also help to improve air, water and soil quality.
Gardening for wildlife can help you share your love of wildlife with your neighbors and help them get involved in creating a home for wildlife.
All species of wildlife need the basics of food, water, cover and places to raise young.
