Support Pollinators

Peterborough Pollinators demonstrate how to create habitat for and protect local pollinators.

Farms at Work has a series of resources about pollinators on farms (food pollinators) on their website here, including a Pollinator Habitat Tool that helps with the selection of appropriate pollinator plants.

You can purchase “A Landowner’s Guide to Conserving Native Pollinators In Ontario (2012)” from Farms at Work for $5 by calling 705-743-7671
