Pollinator Partnership is proud to announce that June 22-28, 2020 has been designated National Pollinator Week!
National Pollinator Week is a time to celebrate pollinators and spread the word about what we can do to protect them. This year's theme is the connection between pollinators, plants, people, and the planet. It's not too early to start thinking about hosting an event in support of pollinator conservation. For ideas, resources, and to share your local events on the official Pollinator Week map, click HERE.
Pollinators positively affect all our lives, supporting wildlife, healthy watershed and more. Together, let's SAVE and CELEBRATE them!
