Shoreline Cleanup
2025-11-24
From plastic straws to coffee lids, everything we throw away ends up somewhere. If it doesn’t make it to a landfill, it will find its way to waterways like rivers, lakes and oceans. It really doesn’t belong there – animals can mistake that junk for food and they can get tangled up in it too. Spend some time this June making a body of water near you a cleaner environment for the animals that live there with your own shoreline cleanup.

How can you nurture the birds in your backyard as the temperature dips?
2025-11-24
Make no mistake. Stocking up on birdseed and stocking your feeder on a regular basis is an incredibly helpful way to support the birds in your backyard through the fall and winter.

Here are five shrubs you might consider adding to your property!
