Thanks to ‘No Mow May’, there is an awareness about protecting our native pollinators. However, there is a better solution. Let’s provide food and habitat to help sustain wildlife year round.
Hats off to the City of De Pere for their Planned Natural Landscapes guidelines that replaces ‘No Mow May’. We applaud their efforts and others like the Homegrown National Parks Program with the One Plant Challenge.

Click the title above which is linked to a news story about how you can help bring pollinators to your yard. You can start with simply adding three plants to your yard; one type of milkweed, one type of mint, and one favorite flower of your choosing. And to really have an impact, encourage your neighbors to do the same. To find out how to start native plants from seed, consider attending our January meeting at the Green Bay Botanical gardens.
