Bringing Nature Home by Douglas W. Tallamy

Bringing Nature Home, How You Can Sustain Wildlife With Native Plants by Douglas W. Tallamy

This month let’s look into the foundational idea that many insects and wildlife depend entirely on the native plants with which they evolved.

We’ll look into why non-native & ornamental plants often fail to support the same web of life (insects → birds → etc.).

This book blends science, field observations, and practical gardening advice. We will be able take away a clearer understanding of why native plants are ecologically essential; tools for identifying & planting natives; inspiration for small-scale changes (even in suburban yards) that have outsized effects.

Purchase your copy at the link below. Let’s read, take notes and talk about it at October’s Book Club.
