Pollinators Essential Mix

Pollinator Essentials Mix is a good start for Native Bees, Butterflies, Beneficial Insect Pollinators & Honey Bees!

Sometimes, we forget about the smaller things that make the world go round. As wildlife has suffered from increased land fragmentation through urbanization, so have bees, beetles, & butterflies. Not long ago, beekeepers would ask farmers to set beehives near croplands in exchange for some honey. Now, farmers are paying beekeepers to bring in hives for their crops. Hives are trucked all over the nation. A third of the U.S. food supply depends on pollinators. Why the decline in pollinators? Could it be the increased use of pesticides... or light pollution in the night sky? Whatever the reasons, many organizations are offering helpful information and incentives for people to plant pollinator habitats. Pollinators like plants that produce pollen, nectar, habitat, shelter, and safety from predators. Pollinators need nectar throughout most of the year, not just in spring. Planting diverse native wildflowers will benefit honey bees & native bees.
