Convert your yard into a beautiful native wildlife habitat and watch how quickly the creatures make it their favorite spot! It’s easy and inexpensive to create food, water, and shelter for native insects and birds. This presentation shows great photos of a local backyard restoration project, and shares some important lessons for the beginning habitat gardener.
