Become a Pollinator Steward!
UMass Extension’s Pollinator Steward Program includes lectures on foundations of pollination ecology, unique pollinator groups, habitat provisioning, and beyond.
Students will learn foundations in pollinator ecology before delving into practical applications, such as floral resource and nest site provisioning.
Review discussions on management, such as pruning, pesticides, aesthetics, site evaluation, and more.
Students will come away with a well-rounded understanding of how to create and manage pollinator habitat, as well as educate others on the creation, maintenance, and importance of such habitats.
