Pollinators aid in the production of much of the food we eat and are required for the pollination/production of about a third of the food we eat. Pollinators are important to human health, global food webs, and protection of biodiversity. Pollinator plantings provide habitat, food, and egg-laying sites for pollinators while also preventing erosion and keeping waterways clean. Pollinators and their habitat are declining rapidly and providing additional habitat for them will help to stall the decline of their populations.
