Growing a Backyard Habitat

Red-tail Land Conservancy’s award-winning Growing Home™ program encourages individuals and organizations in east central Indiana to transform their yards, gardens or other outdoor areas into places that support wildlife. Participants can have their outdoor space certified as a healthy habitat by local botanical specialists, and join a network of pocket nature preserves that support our local wildlife.

If you’re interested in participating in Growing Home™, but aren’t sure where to start, join us on Thursday, July 10th at 6:00pm at BSU’s Environmental Education Center. We will offer a deep dive into the criteria for creating a healthy habitat at home. See examples of solutions from program participants, ask questions of our Growing Home™ committee, and learn more about composting at home as a conservation practice. We will also give away native wildflower seeds (while supplies last) that are perfect for a backyard habitat!
