Conservation at Home: The Conservation Foundation

Adult Program
This program is all about creating eco-friendly landscapes! The “typical” landscape can easily improve water resource practices, wildlife habitat and land stewardship. This education program will cover a variety of techniques for transforming your landscape, including the use of Rain Barrels, Rain Gardens and the selection and the use of native plants. Native plants thrive on their own and do well, even during drought conditions. They attract dozens of species of beneficial wildlife such as butterflies and songbirds. The Conservation Foundation is a private, not-for-profit land and watershed conservation organization based in Naperville.
