Backyard Wildlife


One of the neatest things I think people can do with their yard is to create 'wildlife habitat' in it . Why is this so neat? It adds ecological value to the land, attracts and helps maintain native species and makes a beautiful space to spend time in. The National Wildlife Federation's Certified Wildlife Habitat Program encourages gardeners and landscapers to plant for wildlife. NWF provides a step-by-step guide to transforming your yard into a nurturing preservation for you, local plants and animals. When you've managed to achieve what's been outlined you can apply to have your yard officially certified as a "Wildlife Habitat".
