Wildlife Habitat
So much habitat has been lost to development and pollution. There are ways to slow down the effects of both. There are local and national habitat certification programs. Even without certifying there is so much we can all do to help nature rebound. Creating a backyard habitat provides a haven for bird’s animals and insects. Planting native plants and not using pesticides are two things we can all do to restore a more natural state. Providing bird feeders, bird baths and nesting areas, help give back some of what’s been lost. Take the time to view resources on this site. Start making a difference today!
