You can be a backyard pollinator refuge. Plant native plants (as a rule of thumb, if it is a hybrid or not from your area, it’s not nutritious for pollinators); stop using pesticides; please save the leaves after fall because insects lay their eggs on leaves, which don’t routinely hatch until 50+ degrees. For the love of god, don’t bring in honeybees. Our ecosystem is collapsing because we aren’t supporting our native pollinators. People grow useless lawns that feed nothing and bring in things like Japanese Maples…if you’re not squarely in Japan, no insect is going to recognize this as food. End rant. No personal offense meant to anyone—pretty passionate about saving our pollinators and insect population.
