The Problem

Lack of appropriate habitats for wildlife (including lack of food, water, cover, places to raise young, and sustainable practices).

Our Plan

To create a better environment for wildlife and meet standards to become certified by the National Wildlife Federation as a Garden for Wildlife. Install and stock a squirrel feeder. Incorporate a bird bath into the yard. Increase garden space while decreasing \"yard space\" by reducing mowing and allowing native plants to grow. Create a compost pile. Create a rain garden when water runoff is.
