“By choosing native plants for your yard, you're making choices that are good for the health of Lake Hopatcong, its watershed, and the planet as a whole,” said Lake Hopatcong Foundation Communications Director Holly Odgers. “And, of course, they're beautiful as well!”

Native plants require fewer resources and less maintenance once established, while promoting a healthy ecosystem. They also improve water quality by increasing rainwater infiltration and filtering pollution.
