ABOUT

The goal of this website is to encourage individuals and groups to protect existing wildlife habitats and create their own through native planting and biodiversity development. Even if you do not live in a rural area, urban and suburban locations are home to thousands of species that need our protection. Our upcoming documentary, Suburban Woods, proves just how important a few acres can be to sustaining the lives of many creatures and plants.

Award-winning filmmaker Victor Rook is known for his advocacy for wildlife protection. His feature-length documentary Who's Protecting Our National Bird? calls for the preservation of bald eagle habitats, which are quickly being depleted due to overdevelopment. It won the grand prize at the RVA Environmental Film Festival.
