You don't need to buy birdseed to attract wildlife to your yard. Plant native grasses and shrubs with berries that will feed them for free. Instead cutting back grasses for the fall, leave them up as a seed source and as cover from predators. Doves, mockingbirds, sparrows and other birds will feed on seed heads through the winter.

Join our director of horticulture, Roger Sanderson as he shares more ways to attract birds and other wildlife.

$15.

Over 100 people participated in last year's March to End Animal Exploitation, and the hope is to make this year even bigger. Like last year, the march will coincide with Texas Veggie Fair and end at the Veggie Fair location, Reverchon Park, right when the fair opens so you can make it to both events.
