Humanity will not survive a world without pollinators. Urban pollinator habitat should be seen as food security and biodiversity “infrastructure”. Thank you @PollinateGuelph for all you do!

Miranda Burton with @cityofguelph explained many of the great programs they are doing in #Guelph to help increase # of native plants and help pollinators, from supporting community gardens and increasing tree canopy to growing tons of seedlings for many planting sites. #PGEvents

[Pollination Guelph @PollinateGuelph]

We appreciated the visit by @MikeSchreiner of the @OntarioGreens to our Pollination Symposium in #Guelph today. Learn more about pollinators, plants, and how you can help: https://t.co/ijsbPD1vjF

[Pollination Guelph @PollinateGuelph]

Excited to have @MikeSchreiner
@OntarioGreens really understand the importance of #pollinators in ON and in @cityofguelph, as he shared at our Pollination Guelph symposium today. #PGEvents https://t.co/96uzxyCjww

Vicki Wojick outlines the considerations around urban pollinators; threats from climate change to roads to pesticides, but lots of benefits, especially if you avoid invasive/noxious plants. All sizes have value; remember, some bees can only fly 200m. #PGEvents

[Pollination Guelph @PollinateGuelph]

@Jessicalinton86 speaks about the amazing mottled duskywing reintroduction program, with success seen at the Pinery in 2022, 2023, with more plans for the future to help recover this and other butterfly species. #PGEvents

[Pollination Guelph @PollinateGuelph]

Sisley Irwin speaks about creating urban meadows such as the Meadowway in Toronto, and effects on pollinators at our #PGEvents. Local site features (plantings) more important than larger landscapes, more bees attracted overtime as they establish.

#Moths! Underappreciated #pollinators often active at dusk or night. Local artists Christina Kingsbury and Lisa Hirmer discuss their Ignatius Moth Garden in #Guelph.#PGEvents
