May Topic  - Plant.Grow.Fly. No effort is too small and each and every one of us can do our part to help pollinators thrive just by planting small butterfly gardens.

The program has registered nearly 500 butterfly gardens in the state of Iowa. You will learn how much pollinators impact our global food source, about pollinator conservation and what simple things you can plant to help your local pollinators.
