Homes & Habitat

Whether you live in an urban or rural area, the green spaces around your home are important habitats for our local and migratory wildlife. We want to encourage you to think about wildlife as you garden and maintain the green spaces around your home. Installing native plants and other elements can provide the necessary resources wildlife need to survive. 

As part of our free services and programs, we offer site visits to help you meet the goals of your outdoor space. We can offer guidance about providing food, cover, water, and places for wildlife to raise their young. We can also create native plant lists based on your personal preferences and the types of wildlife you want to attract to your space.
