This session invites Master Gardeners to see their own yards as vital links in a living, regional network of habitat, then equips them to act. Participants will connect personal garden choices to broader biodiversity goals like the Chippewa Valley Biodiversity Partnership’s mission and the Homegrown National Park vision of turning ordinary landscapes into thriving wildlife hotspots. They will learn how to design backyard habitats that supply the four essentials for wildlife, and identify concrete, site-specific steps that move their gardens toward meeting National Wildlife Federation’s Certified Wildlife Habitat and Garden for Wildlife guidelines. Along the way, they will get to know keystone native trees, shrubs, forbs, and grasses suited to our ecozone. Participants will leave with fresh inspiration, practical tools, and a vision that their yard can buzz, flutter, and bloom its way into something wilder and more wonderful.
