Learn to identify wild pollinators, how to provide them with food and habitat, and avoid pesticides that are toxic to them.

Pollinators ensure abundant fruits and vegetables. Of all insect pollinators, bees are the most important. In the US alone, the value of pollination services by bees is estimated to be $18 billion, but these services are threatened and finding alternatives is crucial for long-term pollination success.
