Certified Wildlife Habitats

Author: Herrington Harbour

 

The National Wildlife Federation recognized Herrington North and South as Certified Wildlife Habitats in July of 2009.  This environmental stewardship program began in 1973 to assist enthusiasts in learning how to protect the environment and make their habitat attract wildlife.  Over 113,000 individuals, families, schools, hospitals, restaurants, churches, parks and municipalities have taken on the certifiaction challenge.

To become certified you must provide the four basic elements that all wildlife needs:  food, water, cover and places to raise young; and must employ sustainable gardening practices.  Combined, North and South have reforested over 10 acres of land with a variety of native plant and tree species, created 4.5 acres of spartina marshland and placed 500-plus acres of contiguous forested land into perpetual preservation.  To learn more about wildlife certification for your home or business, visit www.nwf.org/habitat or call 800.822.9919.

The Benefits of Storing Your Boat on Land for the Winter

Although your boat’s natural environment is in the water, storing it on land during the winter months has many benefits for your boat as well as for your peace of mind. On land, your boat is not exposed to potential damage from ice and wind; and the bottom will benefit from an extended drying time decreasing the likelihood of osmotic blister damage. An annual dry storage period is also the perfect time to thoroughly inspect all underwater gear and fittings, ensuring that your boat will offer many years of enjoyment.
