Change begins at our doorstep. By cultivating landscapes with dependable shade, food, water, and cover, our modest garden spaces transform into mini-refuges for wildlife navigating the climate crisis now and in the years to come. Every porch, yard, and pasture represents a potential stepping stone of quality habitat that stitches together fragments extending well beyond a single neighborhood.

In this way, individual acts of gardening become a collective practice. Together, we can build a more resilient future and reconnect with the wonder of our local ecosystems along the way. 

What’s Inside:

• Guidance on gardening practices that build and safeguard habitat 
• Contributed essays on the many ways that stewarding habitat helps connect people, plants, and place
• Profiles of 52 native plants species and six habitat-building plant communities
