Have a natural garden

Gardeners can make good use of this Encyclopedia from the Canadian Wildlife Federation on Wild About Gardening. The spring edition feature tips on switching to drought tolerant plants to a garden. Native bees and the black swallowtail will be in the summer issue. The site is beautifully designed. Check the What's New page.
