This take the opportunity to appreciate nature around you. Whether it is a public park, your garden, or a pot of flowers on your balcony. Pollinators are essential for the sustainability of our food systems and our natural areas!

Minnesota remains committed to work for lands that provide food, nesting and overwintering habitat for pollinators. Restoration work in public lands continues at a steady pace and public participation in programs to install and maintain pollinator habitat in private lands has increased in the past decade.

Check out the progress we are making on our pollinator protection goals by reviewing our latest scorecards here:

All Minnesotans are welcome to use this document to find ideas to take action to protect pollinators in their communities.
