Living snow fence can help trap and control blowing and drifting snow to keep roads safer and reduce winter maintenance costs. Learn how and why we create a natural snow buffer by strategically planting trees, shrubs and grasses : https://t.co/ZEOUVuqvWy

It’s National #PollinatorWeek! #DYK that pollinators like bees, butterflies and bats provide one out of three bites of food we eat? #WisDOT manages native plants along our roadsides to help prevent flooding and erosion, while providing habitat for important #pollinators.

Native vegetation along roadsides protects the roadway from flooding and erosion, while providing diverse flowers for food, nesting and landscape linkages for #pollinators. WisDOT works with partners to increase and maintain native vegetation along roadsides. #EarthWeek

@GovEvers and the First Lady stopped by the Hill Farms State Office Building to talk with some children of state employees for #bringyourchildtowork day. In addition to learning about what their parents do, the kids got to ask the Governor very interesting questions.

Here they come! Many monarchs are dispersing from the Mexican overwintering sites, but some are waiting out a cool spell before heading north. Find out more about it in Journey North's #monarch #migration updates! https://t.co/YNq6uVZ8Ip

2018-19 eastern monarch overwintering numbers were released today, and are up 144% from last year and the highest they've been since 2007. At 6.05 hectares of area occupied in the reserves, we're thrilled for this good news, but our work is not finished!

For some people the idea of compassion entails a complete disregard for or even a sacrifice of their own interests. This is not the case. In fact, we first of all have to have a wish to be happy ourselves – if we don’t love ourselves like that, how can we love others?

People often find it tricky to find locally appropriate milkweed plants. Help is here! Our partner @monarchwatch has created the Milkweed Market to offer low cost or #free #milkweed seedlings for your #pollinator #gardens or larger-scale projects.

Great cause #monarchs conversation! Myself, @WisconsinDOT & @MonarchsJV staff testing out #citizenscience mobile field application. Consider giving back time or money.

[MonarchJointVenture @MonarchsJV]

Don’t miss out on #GivingTuesday! As a follow up to #BlackFriday and #CyberMonday, there is no better way to get in the holiday spirit by giving back. Support monarch conservation today at any amount, and help more monarchs take flight. https://t.co/TH8F43uVr4

Thank you squash bees. Yum pumpkin pie!

[The Bees In Your Backyard @BeesBackyard]

The first step in making pumpkin pie, pollinate the pumpkins. #Thankful for squash bees (Peponapis).
