“People often ask me what they can do to help the environment. A good place to start is by planting native plants,” said Megan Hammaker, Special Events Coordinator for Darke County Parks. “Native plants promote a healthy ecosystem by providing essential food and habitat for pollinators, birds, and other species.”
