Eastern White Cedar: A Hidden Haven for Wildlife! 🌿🦉 Eastern white cedars aren’t just beautiful — they’re also essential for wildlife! Look closely and you might spot a northern saw-whet owl snoozing in its branches. This hardy tree provides food and shelter for many species: 🦌 Deer, red squirrels and hares nibble on its branches. 🐦 Birds and small mammals feast on its tiny cone seeds. ➕ It helps prevent erosion along shorelines AND thrives in various conditions, from shady spots to damp soils. Native from Manitoba to the Maritimes, Eastern white cedar is a fantastic choice for a wildlife-friendly landscape!

Purple-Flowering Raspberry: A Feast & Shelter for Wildlife! 💜 Raspberries aren’t just a tasty snack for us — they’re a vital food source for birds and mammals, too! The purple-flowering raspberry goes even further, offering protective cover for small wildlife and providing nectar and pollen for butterflies and native bees. 🦋 In winter, this incredible shrub plays a crucial role for leafcutter bees. 🐝 These bees’ larvae take shelter inside the plant’s soft-centered stems, logs or rolled-up leaves — safe and snug until spring, when they emerge as adults. Native to Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia, this plant is an amazing addition to any garden looking to support local wildlife!
