With our expertise and passion for creating sustainable, wildlife-friendly outdoor spaces, we can help you turn your backyard into a thriving ecosystem for local flora and fauna. From lush gardens to serene water features, here are a few ways we can help you create a wildlife haven in your own backyard:

1. Native Plant Landscaping One of the simplest ways to attract wildlife to your backyard is by planting native plants. These plants are adapted to your local environment and provide food and habitat for native birds, butterflies, and other wildlife. At Avenscapes NW, we can design and install a custom native plant landscape that will not only beautify your backyard but also support local wildlife populations.

2. Pollinator Gardens Pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds play a crucial role in our ecosystem by helping plants reproduce. By creating a pollinator garden in your backyard, you can provide these important species with the food and habitat they need to thrive. Our team at Avenscapes NW can help you design and plant a pollinator garden that will attract a diverse array of pollinators to your outdoor space.

3. Bird and Butterfly Houses To encourage birds and butterflies to make your backyard their home, consider adding birdhouses and butterfly houses to your landscape. These structures provide shelter and nesting sites for these creatures, creating a safe haven for them to raise their young. Avenscapes NW can custom-build birdhouses and butterfly houses that complement your outdoor design and provide a cozy refuge for local wildlife.

4. Water Features Water features such as ponds, streams, and birdbaths can attract a variety of wildlife to your backyard, including birds, frogs, and dragonflies. These features not only provide drinking and bathing opportunities for wildlife but also add a soothing element to your outdoor space. Our team can design and install a water feature that suits your aesthetic preferences and enhances the overall ecological diversity of your backyard.

5. Eco-Friendly Hardscaping In addition to landscaping, Avenscapes NW also specializes in eco-friendly hardscaping solutions that can enhance the wildlife-friendliness of your backyard. From permeable paver patios to rock gardens, we can create hardscapes that minimize environmental impact and provide additional habitat for wildlife.
