The Audubon Pollinator Alliance
-
Over 40% of critical pollinating insects are facing the threat of extinction due to pesticides, habitat loss, climate change, pathogens, deforestation, and invasive species. As individuals and communities, we can make a difference by creating healthy pollinator habitat in our own backyards.
The Audubon Pollinator Alliance is focused on connecting neighbors and communities who have pollinator gardens to form a state-wide network that supports bees, birds, butterflies and other pollinators.
Joining the Alliance allows us to utilize the information on your pollinator garden and others across the state to inform decisions on policy and rally others to the cause!
-
Show Your Alliance: Once your garden is registered, you can purchase a garden sign to help spread the word and identify your space as healthy pollinator habitat.
