✨ Minimize non-native grass lawns by planting native plants like White Meadowsweet (Spiraea alba var. latifolia) and Rough-Stemmed Goldenrod (Solidago rugosa). These offer shelter, nesting material, and nutritious seeds. Leaving plants gone to seed as noted in the image help provide a food source and nesting materials. ![]()
