It turns out anyone with a good-sized backyard can create a garden that attracts beautiful wildlife and helps to restore habitat in commercial and residential areas.  By providing food, water, cover and a place for wildlife to raise their young, you not only help wildlife, but you can also be certified, to join the nearly 140,000 official National Wildlife Federation Certified Community Wildlife Habitat™ sites across the country.
