The National Wildlife Federation's Garden for Wildlife™ movement engages gardeners in planting with a purpose. Anyone can create a welcoming haven for local wildlife. Turning your yard, balcony container garden, schoolyard, work landscape, or roadside greenspace into a thriving habitat for birds, bees, butterflies, and other wildlife is fun, easy, and can make a lasting difference for wildlife.

These collections are wonderful way to start a garden habitat with seed. Create beautiful butterfly gardens or food gardens. Food gardens include pollinator-friendly, nectar-providing herbs and edible flowers. Check out these wildlife friendly collections that are win-win for both wildlife and people. For lasting ecosystem impact, supplement these collections with perennial native plants to help birds and other wildlife to thrive.
