Discover how your yard can be both a beautiful garden and a valuable habitat for wildlife. Landscaping with native plants supports bees, butterflies, birds, and other creatures while also helping protect local lakes and streams. This presentation will introduce sustainable gardening practices and highlight reliable native plants that perform well in a variety of conditions, making it easier to choose options that thrive and look great in your garden.
