Natural Neighbors

Wednesday, May 17, 5:00 PM: Natural Neighbors with BiodiversityWorks.

While Martha’s Vineyard has a lot of land in conservation, these properties aren’t enough to conserve the island’s flora and fauna into the future. Populations of plants and animals need to find each other, and private lands can provide vital habitat connectivity to help wildlife and plants move, mate, pollinate, and thrive. Many private landowners enjoy the plants and animals on their property and contact us to learn more about them or how to help them. Natural Neighbors has sprouted from the many requests we receive from landowners who want to know more about stewardship. Natural Neighbors works with property owners and neighborhood associations to learn about their interests in nature and identify current and potential biodiversity contributions on their land. Then, we are able to offer customized management recommendations to benefit plants, pollinators, and wildlife in your area. We’ll help you develop a stewardship plan compatible with your time and resources. In person.
