Plants for Pollinators!

Birds, bats, bees, butterflies, beetles, and other small mammals that pollinate plants are responsible for bringing us one out of every three bites of food. They also sustain our ecosystems and produce our natural resources by helping plants reproduce.

This nearly invisible ecosystem service is a precious resource that requires attention and support - and in disturbing evidence found around the globe, is increasingly in jeopardy. You can plant these seeds to attract and feed pollinators! For more information on the importance of pollinators visit Pollinator Partnership.
