 The Audubon
Guide to Gardening for Life in Southeastern Pennsylvania.
© 2005
Residents of southeastern Pennsylvania are faced with challenges
that are also found in other parts of the northeast: excessive
water, invasive plants, deer, over-development, and more. The
Guide to Gardening for Life offers 84 colorful pages with informative
essays and companion profiles of noteworthy residents who have
successfully tackled problems and created habitat spaces that
are non-toxic and wildlife-friendly. Each chapter is summarized
with helpful At Home Actions (AHA!) and includes tips from the
profile subjects.
