Benefits of a Wildlife Garden
A wildlife garden, tailored for birds and butterflies in Michigan, brings big rewards with little effort. Here’s why it’s worth it:
• Eco Wins: Boosts biodiversity, supports pollinators like butterflies, and improves soil health with native plants. Birds control pests naturally—no pesticides needed.
• Personal Perks: Reduces stress, offers light exercise, and adds beauty with blooms and bird songs. Plus, it’s low-cost over time.
• Community Good: Creates wildlife corridors, inspires neighbors, and helps local farms by aiding pollinators.
• Bird & Butterfly Bonus: Provides food, shelter, and breeding spots—vital in Michigan’s tough winters or for declining species like monarchs.
A small garden makes a big difference—for nature and you.
