Backyard Wildlife Habitat is an online resource provided by the National Wildlife Federation to help individuals create a thriving habitat in their own backyards. Their approach focuses on life zones, food, water, cover, and young and offers a free online habitat planner to help users improve each of these areas in their gardens and yards.

This website provides a wealth of information and projects about attracting wildlife, plants, resources, conservation, and seasonal chores. Browse photos of gardens submitted by other members, find lists of plants native to regional areas, and learn how to certify a garden or yard with the NWF.
