Anybody can be a Habitat Hero. Habitat Heroes are individuals who make a positive impact in our Colorado and Wyoming communities by increasing natural areas, providing homes and food for wildlife, and creating small areas of wildlife habitat that can connect larger green spaces together.
Whether the landscape you tend to is a residential yard, a few pots on a balcony, a public park or schoolyard garden, Habitat Heroes believe in growing a healthy community for birds, wildlife and people! Does this sound like you? Then let’s make sure you get the recognition you deserve and your efforts, big and small, inspire others!
Applications are reviewed in a tiered manner, so that you can be recognized whether you’re placing a section of turfgrass with native plantings or a seasoned green-thumb enthusiast that is wildscaping the last corner of your yard.
The updated webpage at http://rockies.audubon.org/habitat-heroes addresses the FAQ’s of the application process and includes; tips and components that make up a Habitat Hero Garden and benefits package.
