Hometown Habitat features renowned entomologist Dr. Douglas Tallamy, whose research, books and lectures on the use of non-native plants in landscaping, sound the alarm about habitat and species loss. Tallamy provides the narrative thread that challenges the notion that humans are here and nature is someplace else. âIt doesnât have to, and shouldnât be that way.â Inspiring stories of community commitment to conservation landscaping illustrate Tallamyâs vision by showing how humans and nature can co-exist with mutual benefits.
