Spring is the perfect time for gardening and for helping pollinators. Choosing native plants will dress your yard with beautiful blooms while also benefiting pollinators, such as hummingbirds, bees, butterflies, moths and beetles, by providing them with nectar. And, if you grow fruits and vegetables, attracting pollinators will also ensure you have a bountiful crop, since plants such as blueberries, apples, oranges, squash, and tomatoes depend on these critters.
