Help Native Bees, Birds, Butterflies & Biodiversity

When you landscape with native plants you not only create a beautiful landscape — you support the life that sustains us. Adding native plants, shrubs, and trees to your gardens provides important food, shelter, and habitat for a wide diversity of wildlife. Using sustainable practices, like reducing or eliminating chemicals, protects our pollinators and reduces pollution. Even small changes make a difference!

You can do it, and North Oakland Wild Ones will help!
