Planting program can turn your Burlington garden into a happy zone for native species
Published April 23, 2024 at 4:12 pm
Turning your garden into a sanctuary for native species doesn’t have to be a difficult task.
BurlingtonGreen can help you with your environmental transition through its garden kit program.
The local environmental agency is selling three kits this year to meet different types of garden conditions but when they come to fruition will provide a welcoming place for local wildlife.
Native plants are important because they adapt better to local environmental conditions and usually require less watering. Also, native plants provide a natural habitat for local birds and other species that are essential in keeping our ecosystem operating.
The kits come with pollinator seed packets prepared by BurlingtonGreen volunteers.
Kits available are for sun-loving gardens, shade gardens and gardens to attract Monarch butterflies.
