Pollinator Networks is a Boston-based organization that restores and constructs new native habitats for bees, butterflies, birds, and other pollinators.
We combine a unique approach of community outreach, art, and education to create the foundation for sustainable change in local ecosystems.
It is a critical time for our environment: Our cities are being developed at breakneck speeds, without enough thought to preserving green space. In an age of climate change and environmental degradation, creating gardens is a way to support the pollinators whose numbers are falling at unprecedented rates, and on whose existence our food, and our lives, depend.
Why Focus on Gardens?
Habitat destruction is one of the biggest threats to pollinator populations across the world. This group of creatures is vital to the process of plant reproduction, and creates a healthy ecosystem that other wildlife (including humans!) depend on. Bringing pollinators to local neighborhoods benefits plants and flowers all over the community. More pollinators mean more fruit, flowers and vegetables.
