Planting for Pollinators

Pollinators are critical to a healthy environment and many native species of bees are in jeopardy. Birds, bats, butterflies, beetles, some small mammals, and most importantly, bees pollinate plants and are responsible for bringing us one out of every three bites of food. In this class you will learn what you can do at home to create healthy pollinator habitats for native bees and butterflies in your own yard. U of M Extension Master Gardener volunteers are eager to share research-based gardening best practices that promote healthy landscapes, healthy foods, and healthy lives with the people in their community.
