learn more! Create a backyard wildlife habitat

Your yard may be home to 15 migratory birds, 20 native plant species, five kinds of butterflies, and enough wildlife to make you think you're on a safari.

This isn't your yard, you say? Well, it could be. It's not hard, and it doesn't matter where you live or even how much yard or garden space you have.

Sign up for a workshop to learn about the National Wildlife Federation's Backyard Wildlife Habitat program. Learn how you can help save a place for wildlife in your own backyard while opening your eyes and heart to the natural world, to be nourished by its wonders.

This will be from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 9, at Crowfield Farm Retreat House, 2378 Norsen Road, Newark. The fee is $5 (a donation to the National Wildlife Federation.)

Habitat Steward Nannett Cepero will be the instructor. For more information, call 716.370.6824 or e-mail us at happyhabitats@aol.com
