Native Pollinators (Beechwood)

Pollination is an essential part of a well-functioning and productive ecosystem. Pollinators play a key role in the development of over 150 food crops in the United States. However, scientists have noted long-term declines in pollinator population trends for some North American pollinators, including our native bumble bees. This program discusses our native pollinators and how you can help them—including a primer on Bumble Bee Watch, a community science program designed to track and conserve North America’s bumble bees.
