Four of the gardens were created with the assistance of area Landscape Designer, John C. Magee, who is known for his ecologically friendly designs. Two of the other gardens have been created largely using locally native plants rescued from development sites. Habitat restoration is critical for wildlife in urban and suburban settings where commercial and residential development encroaches on natural areas. Each habitat on the tour will be hosted by a NWF representative who will answer questions and help inspire participants to create their own Backyard Wildlife Habitat site. Registration deadline is May 26, 2000.
Space is limited.
