SUPPORT WILDLIFE
HABITAT

Habitat Restoration is critical for
wildlife survival in urban and
suburban settings where
development has eliminated most
natural areas.

Create a sense of place: Southeast
PA has a unique natural heritage

Connect with nature: Functional
ecosystems support life

Connect fragmented habitat: Stop
species decline of birds, amphibians
and native plants

Reduce time and money:  Lawn-
dominated landscapes consume
time, money and resources

Reduce health risks from pesticides
and other chemicals: 10x more
pesticides per acre are used on
suburban lawns than on farmland

Preserve water quality and reduce
flooding: Decrease runoff & keep
water on-site

Remember we are stewards of the
Earth
