How to create a backyard habitat:

  • What is a sustainable backyard habitat and why is it important?
  • Play pollinator BINGO and learn about all the plants and insects we need for a healthy food web
  • Learn planting and growing tips for a healthy backyard habitat. Hint: leave the leaves and save ‘clean-up’ for indoors!
  • Dress for weather as our learning will take us outside for hands-on exploration

Hosted by: The Sustainable Land Care Working Group (SLCWG), part of the new Sustainable West Hartford Commission, offering many combined years of experience in gardening with native plants, habitat restoration, organic lawn care and more.
