The Problem
The small grove near my neighborhood has been cleared to make way for a Whole Foods, a grocery store known for its organic food. However, while organic food for people will be readily available, the natural "grocery store" for local wildlife has disappeared. As our cities expand and homes are renovated, life becomes increasingly comfortable for us. But whose homes have been taken away in the process? And in the quiet nights outside our warm, bustling house parties, whose presence has silently disappeared? We would like to promote native plants and increase community members' awareness of wildlife habitats in their home landscapes. We hope to build an environment that benefits both humans and wildlife, making both happy and healthy.
