You can use the grass on the land that is already, more than likely, there and just add to the lands natural slopes and terrain to create a habitat with birds, insects and other wildlife can coexist. You can also plant woody vegetation to protect buildings and other structures on the land as well. Trees and large bushes help protect land from erosion as well, so keep this in mind if there is a water supply on the land already. Some common woody vegetation to consider would be: 1.
