Pollinator Awards
The Pollinator Awards are an important part of an international effort to promote public awareness about pollinators – birds, bees, bats, butterflies, beetles, and other pollinating animals that enable the reproduction of over 75 percent of flowering plants, accounting for as much as one-third of the nation’s food supply. More information about the Awards is available at http://www.pollinator.org/awards.htm.

Ecoregional Planting Guides for Pollinators

Ecoregional Guides, “Selecting Plants for Pollinators,” are available for 31 ecoregions in the U.S. These guides are practical tools for farmers, ranchers, gardeners and public and private land managers who want to share their landscapes by establishing habitat for pollinators through native plants that are specific to their own region. The guides are available for free at http://www.pollinator.org/guides.htm. All users need is their zip code, and an online Zip Code Habitat Locator will connect them to their map and guide.
