Kudos ~ Libertyville and Antioch Townships

Lake County Audubon Society has recognized Libertyville and Antioch townships for their work in installing native plants as part of township landscape plans. Township officials received a Plants for Birds display sign recognizing their efforts. The birdscaping program is designed to model the use of native plants for decorative and functional landscaping by installing them in public places. Volunteer groups assist townships and other entities to plan, purchase and install native plants to benefit the most endangered species, migratory songbirds.

Libertyville Township, Antioch Township, the Osmond Park Interpretive Trail Initiative, Lake Forest College and the Antioch Garden Club all contributed their expertise in plant selection, planting, conservation, presentation, bird species, animal habitats, communications and community engagement.
