Bee Friendly Gardening Members Only Webpage

Welcome! We are so happy that you are a Bee Friendly Gardening Member! The two fundamental principles of Bee Friendly Gardening are pollinator habitat and Integrated Pest Management (IPM) - in other words, plant for pollinators and adopt management practices that will keep them safe. Here at BFG we will help you continue your efforts to further this mission.
Join Members Only Facebook Page
Have you joined the BFG Member Facebook group yet? It’s a great place to show off your garden and chat with other BFG Members from around North America. Just fill out a few questions to verify you are a BFG Member (be sure you have your unique membership number found on your Certificate of Membership ready).
Contribute Data About Your Garden
We have a Bee Friendly Gardening iNaturalist project. This is something we sincerely hope you will join and contribute to, as a way to measure the collective impact all of our Bee Friendly Gardens are having. Here are instructions on how to join the project and more information on what it is. Once accepted, please read the guidelines - the purpose is to document the wildlife benefitting from your BFG.
Show the World What You Are Doing

Now that you are a BFG Member, purchase a sign to help raise awareness. Your actions help educate and encourage others to join us in creating pollinator habitat. Once you install your sign, email a photo of it (include yourself if you wish!) in your Bee Friendly Garden for inclusion in an upcoming newsletter. We want to see and hear about your Bee Friendly Garden. We want to include your real-life experiences in our newsletter and social media posts to inspire fellow members and provide a platform for you to show off your hard work. Email your garden story along with photos to bfg@pollinator.org.
We’re always looking for content for recurring columns, such as My Favorite Pollinator Plant (make sure to tell us why) and How Many Host Plants? (How many host plants for pollinators do you have in your garden, and which ones?) We love to share stories about how our members are advocating for pollinators in their community - through community gardens, public-facing habitat creation, pollinator-themed celebrations, raising awareness in neighborhoods and cities, and volunteer efforts. Tell us about the neat things you have done! We’d love to hear from you. Have feedback on the program? Send it to bfg@pollinator.org.
