Benefits of Native Gardens
Adapted to this area
Native plants are adapted to the local climate, soil, and pests, so they require less maintenance than non-native plants. They also naturally resist local pests and diseases, so your garden will be healthier and more sustainable.
Low maintenance
Native plants are perennials, meaning they come back year after year. They also have deep roots, so they are drought tolerant, and hardier than other plants.
Habitat for wildlife
Native plants provide food and shelter for birds, pollinators, and small animals.
Climate resilience
Native plants provide a buffer for wildlife against food shortages and environmental disruptions.
Pollinator Garden

The pollinator garden is devoted to plants that attract butterflies, moths, birds, bats and especially bees, which feed on the flower’s nectar.
Pollinators affect 35 percent of the world’s crop production, increasing outputs of 87 of the leading food crops worldwide, as well as many plant-derived medicines. At least one-third of the world’s agricultural crops depend upon pollination provided by insects and other animals.
