Program Description

Event Details

Join us to discover the importance of leaves for birds, insects, and other wildlife. You'll learn how leaves play a key role in soil health and water conservation by acting as natural mulch, suppressing weeds, and enriching the soil as they decompose. Leaving leaves in place creates essential habitats for salamanders, toads, and turtles, while also providing food, shelter, and nesting material for birds and mammals. Plus, many moth and butterfly caterpillars spend the winter in fallen leaves before emerging in spring.
