Providing food and habitat encourages birds to forage and take shelter in your garden. Leave the seeds of late blooming perennials for our feathered friends to eat. Overwintering resident species and birds passing through on their migration will appreciate winter berries and habitat from evergreen and deciduous shrubs of varying heights.

Winter is time for record keeping, resource gathering, and reflection. Maximize your success with ecological site planning. With the “right plant, right place” approach, you’ll place plants in their ideal location and your garden landscape will thrive and provide abundance and habitat in a changing climate.

Embrace the mess! Dried flower heads, fallen leaves, plant stalks, and other garden debris provide important habitat for overwintering invertebrates and birds - valuable allies to our ecological garden. Save most of your garden cleanup until daytime temperatures consistently reach 50°F.
