RE5 Reasons Pollinator Insects Matter (For more than just your garden!)
1. They feed the world
Pollinators like bees, butterflies, and other insects help produce about one-third of the food we eat — from fruits and vegetables to nuts and seeds.
2. They support farmers & local economies
Many crops depend on insect pollination, which means pollinators directly impact agriculture, jobs, and global food markets.
3. They protect biodiversity
By pollinating wild plants, they keep natural ecosystems healthy and thriving — supporting birds, mammals, and entire food webs.
4. They improve nutrition
Foods rich in vitamins and minerals (like berries, squash, nuts, and leafy greens) rely on pollination. No pollinators = fewer nutrient-dense foods.
5. They sustain future generations
Healthy pollinator populations mean stable food systems, resilient environments, and a more secure future for all of us.
Plant flowers, skip harmful pesticides, and support local beekeepers. Because when pollinators thrive, we all thrive 🦋🌾
