6 Simple Steps to Get Started

  1. Put out a bird feeder and fill it with sunflower seed.
  2. Plant a shrub with flowers for butterflies or berries for birds and small animals.
  3. Put out a birdbath. Even small water features will be used by wildlife.
  4. Dense shrubs, wildflower gardens, rock walls and evergreens all provide wildlife with cover.
  5. Hang a birdhouse, plant host plants for butterfly caterpillars or intall a frog pond to provide places to raise young.
  6. Put away the chemicals. Natural gardens are better for you and your family as well as wildlife.
