Why It Matters 

Louisville is home to hundreds of plants, insects, and wildlife that support a healthy, balanced ecosystem. From pollinators that sustain our gardens and food systems, to native birds and mammals that maintain our local biodiversity, protecting our environment is key to building a more resilient community.
