You probably know that bees and butterflies need our help – but do you know how easy it is?
Helping backyard pollinators can be as simple as planting a packet of native wildflower seeds in your backyard or on your balcony.
"That's going to attract the pollinators, and once they pollinate the plants you'll have more flowers," said Amanda Lange, a resource technician with the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA). "That in turn attracts more pollinators."
Before you know it, you'll have a backyard buzzing with activity and life.
