How to Plant a Pollinator Garden

1. Learn which pollinator-friendly native plants grow in your region.

2. Plan your garden using this guide from the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden.

3. Tend to your garden on a weekly basis to pull weeds, trim plants, and observe your plant progress.

4. Avoid spraying pesticides. More often than not, the suspected pest is not a threat. However, if you find you need to treat your garden, call your local county Extension office.
