Watershed councils have a strong focus on native plants, restoring habitat, and restoring impaired watersheds.  They have a wealth of information on the  habitats and important species in your backyard and surrounding area. They work on a voluntary basis with  Landowners,  Municipalities, “Friends Of” groups, and state and federal     agencies to restore habitats for beneficial species.  Contact your local watershed council for more information on your local area.
