Habitat Garden Club works hard in our native plant gardens, but we’re careful not to tidy up too much during the autumn season. Clipping back fallen foliage around pathways and sidewalks, we distribute seeds, make floral arrangements for the Nature Center (thanks Holly!) from the cuttings, and we leave the rest for the birds. We like growing tall around here, and leaving grasses, stalks and seeds throughout the fall and winter provides cover and food source for wildlife and structures for overwintering insects.
