Apart from being the logical environmental, aesthetic and economic choice for managing your land, frankly, one reason for choosing native restoration with Eco Logic is the pride and fulfillment you’ll get in return.
Through native restoration, you can take pride in knowing that you are restoring lost habitat for wildlife; that you are building the diversity of your local ecosystem; that you are helping reduce pollution; that you are joining others in becoming a steward of our natural heritage. The list goes on.
In fact, the National Wildlife Federation and Audubon International offer national recognition and certification to landowners—in urban, suburban or rural settings—who make steps toward restoring backyards into natural habitats.
To top it all off, with native plants you’ll have more time to enjoy the natural beauty and wildlife activity on your property, because of their low-maintenance rewards.
Apart from being the logical environmental, aesthetic and economic choice for managing your land, one reason for choosing native restoration with Eco Logic is the public relations rewards it brings your business or corporation.
At a time when concerns over urban sprawl and the health of our environment are at an all-time high, you can show your community that, in addition to providing jobs, you are taking steps to give back to the environment. By becoming a steward of our natural heritage, your business will reap rewards publicly—the local press will likely even be interested in your environmental action—and internally—your personnel will thank you for creating a more pleasing working environment.
Landscaping with native plants is promoted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as the most environmentally friendly form of land management. In fact, once you have completed your stewardship action, you are eligible to receive recognition as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary by Audubon International. Such certification, which Eco Logic will help facilitate, affords your business standing that your community and workers will thank you for.
To top it all off, the economic benefits and low-maintenance rewards of landscaping with native plants will reduce your bottom line over the long run.
Increase Your Land’s Educational, Cultural, & Historical Value
Apart from being the logical environmental, aesthetic and economic choice for managing your land, one reason for choosing native restoration with Eco Logic is the increase in educational, cultural and historical value it brings your land.
By becoming a steward of our natural heritage, you provide your visitors, clientele, members and patrons with educational links to the past. Many native plants served significant roles in history. For example, Native Americans and European settlers used native plants for medicinal and nutritional purposes, as well as for building materials.
Once you have completed your stewardship action, you are eligible to receive recognition as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary by Audubon International. If you are with an educational institution, Audubon International even has a special program for schools. Landscaping with native plants is also promoted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as the most environmentally friendly form of land management.
By facilitating such educational opportunities, you can promote the historical significance of your property or even provide interpretive trails and tours—something Eco Logic is equipped to help you do—and it’s something that your patrons will thank you for.
To top it all off, you can prove to your members, or state agencies, that their support is going toward a more environmentally sound and less economically taxing project with long-term educational rewards.
Make Your Green Space Ecologically Valuable, While Enhancing Beauty
One of the perennial concerns for golf course superintendents is sustaining hardy, open green spaces, while remaining sensitive to the environmental harms of large-scale turfgrass maintenance. Incorporating native restoration with Eco Logic is the logical environmental, aesthetic and economic choice for addressing these concerns while enhancing the beauty of your green spaces.
The low-maintenance traits of native plants reduce chemical use, water use, and erosion, while enhancing the overall beauty of your green spaces. The cultural and historic significance of native plants even afford expanded opportunities for outreach and educational activities. The United States Golf Association (USGA) even touts land management practices like native landscaping as a way to reduce the environmental impacts associated with golf course management.
In fact, by incorporating native plant communities into your golf course, you will be eligible to receive recognition as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary by Audubon International. For over ten years now, Audubon International has worked in cooperation with USGA to welcome over 2,300 golf courses as members.
By joining these other golf courses and becoming a steward of our natural heritage, you will reap rewards publicly—the local press will likely be interested in your environmental action—and internally—your golfers and personnel will thank you for creating a more beautiful recreational environment.
