Planting for pollinators

A pollinator garden is a garden that is planted predominately with flowers that provide nectar or pollen for a wide range of pollinating insects.

Many of us enjoy the beauty of flowers in our backyard and community gardens. Growing native plants adds beauty and important habitats for wildlife, especially for pollinators.

Even a small backyard garden can make a big difference. Gardening connects us to nature and helps us better understand how nature works.
