Pollinators have become a driving force in the switch to native plants. When most people think of pollinator habitat, they think about
nectar and pollen from the flowers. But pollinators need much more. In this talk we will look at creating pollinator habitats based on the needs of the pollinators. We will also see why a complete pollinator habitat depends on native plants and is great for, and necessary, for birds and other wildlife.
