Nature’s Best Hope: A New Approach to Conservation that Starts in Your Yard

Douglas W. Tallamy’s first book, Bringing Nature Home, awakened thousands of readers to an urgent situation: wildlife populations are in decline because the native plants they depend on are fast disappearing. His solution? Plant more natives.

In his new book, award-winning author and entomologist, Doug Tallamy, takes the next step and outlines his vision for a grassroots approach to conservation. Nature’s Best Hope shows homeowners everywhere how to turn their yards into conservation corridors that provide wildlife habitats.

Tallamy will share with us his vision of a world where, as he describes in the introduction to Nature’s Best Hope, “landscaping will become synonymous with ecological restoration.” He believes that as earth stewards, we will live not with less but with more as our lives are enriched by birds, butterflies, blossoms, and the abundant animal and plant biodiversity thriving in our own backyards.

Hear from Tallamy how you can use Nature’s Best Hope as a blueprint for doing your part to help preserve our precious wildlife—and the planet—for future generations
