Bees, butterflies, and birds flutter into the spotlight for Pollinator Week 2022, June 20-26. Begun by Pollinator Partnership and recognized by the U.S. Senate, National Pollinator Week highlights pollinators’ contributions to keeping ecosystems healthy.
By spreading pollen between plants, pollinators help plants reproduce. This essential service supports “87 of the leading food crops worldwide,” according to a report from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Pollinator Week gives people the chance to appreciate pollinators for performing such an important task.
