Collection: Pollinator-Friendly Species

Pollinators are nearly as important as sunlight, soil, and water to the reproductive success of over 75% of the world’s flowering plants. According to the University of Wisconsin- Madison Pollinator fact sheet, approximately three-quarters of the world’s major food crops require or benefit from animal pollination.

Being a pollinator in Wisconsin is not an easy job. Populations of pollinators are changing. Many pollinator populations are in decline due to a variety of reasons including loss of habitat. There are other contributing factors like pollution, misuse of chemicals, disease, and changes in climate patterns.

Support bees, butterflies, moths and other insects by purchasing pollinator friendly species!
