🐝 I have always been passionate 💚 about gardening habitat for pollinators from bees 🐝to butterflies 🦋 to bats🦇! And The Pollinator Partnership has long been one of my favorite non-profits that does an incredible job working for pollinator conservation and provides a wealth of educational materials for gardeners.🌻
🪲This past year, I enriched my own knowledge of pollinator biology and conservation through their Pollinator Steward Certification course and received by certification this fall! 🎉 🏅
🪰In addition to the online classes with pollinator experts, certification requires pollinator stewards to do outreach in the community and to actively improve pollinator habitat. 🌻 Below are a few photos from my outreach booth on native pollinators at a Pollinator Festival at Bear Creek Nature Center in El Paso County (August 2025). 💚 I had a blast talking with families & inspiring them to look closely at bumble bees! 🐝
🦋Remember, pollinators need our help & we can each create habitat for thousands of these amazing creatures, even in a small corner of our yard or even in pots on an apartment balcony! 🌸
