HabiChat - Fall 2023


Welcome back to HabiChat!


Hello, Habichatters!

In this autumn issue, you'll find a native animal profile about the prickly porcupine, along with some thoughts about where food gardening and native plants can overlap. If your mind turns to bats in the increasingly darker hours, we have some suggestions for how best to support them from your home. And finally, guest author and Natural Resources Technician Joel Cockerham teaches us about invasive plants at Soldiers Delight Natural Environment Area. Enjoy!
