Toni designed a Wildlife Habitat in a small, typical
residential yard (100 ft X 50 Ft) that was certified by National Wildlife
Federation in 2003. One example of bringing diversity to this yard by adding
many Ohio native plants and eliminating chemicals is that 2 kinds of butterflies
in 2001 went to 34 different kinds in 2006 with representation from all 5 major
butterfly families.
