Got Biodiversity?

Every now and then an idea comes around that sparks a revolution. Are you ready?

Caterpillars!

Doug Tallamy, entomologist, professor, and author of "Nature's Best Hope" has started a conservation movement to plant native plants in everyone's yard.
This simple idea will:
  • Save water
  • Stop wildlife extinction
  • Save birds
  • Save butterflies
  • Promote local wildlife
  • Shrink the lawns
  • Help pollinators
  • Beautify America
