Nature Habitat Certification
What are the benefits to this certification?
A Nature Habitat is the manipulation of your land into a landscape that provides essential resources for different kinds of wildlife, such as birds, butterflies, small mammals and other creatures. This could entail something as simple as planting a few host plants for butterflies or as elaborate as creating a place that provides food, water, summer shade, winter refuge, perches, nesting sites, and hiding places for all kinds of wildlife. This ecologically minded gardening is especially critical in areas of excessive development. Natural wildlife habitat is disappearing quickly. Creating a nature habitat is the perfect way for you, your family, and your schools to help conserve wildlife while being able to enjoy observing it every day in your own backyard.
