Wildlife Habitat Council Conservation certifies Argos Savannah and Martinsburg plants

To be certified by the Wildlife Habitat Certification, the operations had to demonstrate that they have a meaningful wildlife habitat management and conservation education programme. Their habitats had to be certified locally, the projects had to exceed any regulatory requirements already established, provide third-party credibility, produce an aggregated metric for reporting and demonstrate a long-term commitment to managing quality habitat for wildlife, conservation education, and community outreach initiatives.

The Wildlife Habitat Certification (WHC) is the only voluntary sustainability standard designed for broad-based biodiversity enhancement and conservation education activities on corporate landholdings. The Conservation Certification recognises a wide-range of projects that include native landscaping, mangrove restoration, butterfly monitoring, sustainable hunting to control deer populations, PhD projects and community Earth Day events. The certification is a 2-year certification in which Argos must continue monitoring and meeting objectives to maintain it. WHC programmes can be found in 47 US states and 28 countries.
