River City Harvest is proud to announce that we are a certified National Wildlife Federation Garden!
What does that mean?
“The National Wildlife Federation’s Garden for Wildlife Program helps people restore habitat and wildlife populations to our cities, towns and neighborhoods. Since 1973, the program has been educating and empowering people turn their own small piece of the Earth–their yards and gardens–into thriving habitat for birds, butterflies and other wildlife. In doing so, the Garden for Wildlife program helps wildlife and gives people a daily connection to the natural world, literally right outside their door.”
It means that RCH has provided and is committed to providing in the future:
- Food
- Water
- Cover
- Places to Raise Young
- Sustainable Practices
This is for plants, insects and animals. You’ll find native plants, pollinator plants, cover, a place for birds, bees and butterflies, even a water feature in our serenity garden at Park Place.
Thank you to our gardeners and board members for being great citizens of the Earth.
