Creating Habitat for Wildlife Garden Planner

To facilitate the creation of wildlife-friendly gardens across Canada, the Canadian Wildlife Federation (CWF) has produced a colourful garden planner called Creating Habitat for Wildlife. Brimming with advice and vibrant watercolour illustrations, it is as beautiful as it is useful. There are sections on attracting birds, choosing plants, composting, and managing insect pests, just to name a few. The planner also provides a habitat checklist and record pages for birds, butterflies, perennials, trees, and shrubs, among other things. To complete your plans, graph paper allows you to design your garden's layout.

Creating Habitat for Wildlife is printed on synthetic (tree-free) paper that is waterproof, washable, and tear resistant. You can use it both inside and out without worrying that rain or a sprinkler will wash your notes away. Order your copy for $9 (includes shipping and taxes) by calling CWF at 1-800-563-9453 (613-599-9594, Ottawa area) or by completing the form.
