An essential, eye-opening (and beautiful) guide to the simple, sustainable ways we can invite more native birds, bees and butterflies into our gardens and outdoor spaces.

'Simple everyday steps to growing habitat for our precious pollinators and wildlife.' –Costa Georgiadis

'I love this book! There's so much to learn and apply for any garden context to help our native wildlife thrive.' –Hannah Moloney

'Filled with down-to-earth advice, this wonderful book places environmental stewardship at the heart of successful home gardening.' –Kate Flood, The Compost Coach

Countless Australian species of birds, bees and butterflies are in decline or threatened with extinction, but you can help.

Writer and gardener Jaclyn Crupi shows us that protecting and fostering precious native wildlife starts in our own backyards. The first step: start planting! And choose native plants where possible. This alone presents endless opportunities for habitat creation – sometimes it's the smallest actions that make the biggest difference. Providing a well-placed dish of water on a hot day or allowing leaf litter to stay where it falls are among the many other super simple ways you can make your garden more attractive to native birds, bees and butterflies, and in turn benefit all species.
