Did you know that one out of every three bites of food we eat depends on pollinators like bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds? These incredible creatures play a vital role in our ecosystem, but their populations are declining.
Here are a few things you can do to help save the pollinators:
- Plant a pollinator garden! Choose native flowers that bloom throughout the season to provide a continuous food source.
- Skip the pesticides! These chemicals harm pollinators and can be harmful to the environment. Opt for natural pest control methods instead.
- Provide shelter for pollinators! Leave some dead snags and leaf litter in your yard. You can also build a bee hotel to offer nesting sites.
- Spread the word! Talk to your friends and family about the importance of pollinators and how they can help.
Together, we can make a difference!
