Collection: Pollinator Garden
These plants are selected specifically to support native pollinators in Massachusetts. using Native Plants that have evolved with these pollinators. A few non-native may be listed as they are considered keystone plants important for certain pollinators.
Remember if you are planting for pollinators: it is best to get 3 of each plant( and plant in close proximity to each other, this will make it easier for native pollinators that sometimes specialize on certain plants to get the nectar or pollen they need without spending extra energy searching. Also consider adding your favorite pollinators host plant.
A host plant if a plant that provides any of the following: breeding site, egg laying site, food, shelter for another organism.
Example: Milkweed: A female butterfly will lay her eggs on milkweed leaves, then when the caterpillar hatch they eat the leaves of the milkweed(monarch caterpillars have evolved to only eat milkweed), then once matured they become a chrysalis and attach to the bottom of one of the milkweed leaves until they finally emerge as an adult butterfly.
Milkweed is the only larval host plant for the Monarch Butterfly. So please include at least one of these species in your garden.
All plants are grown with ecological methods, soil, seeds & plants that are harvested(on private property (Middlesex county, MA) or purchased from sources using ecological or organic practices in the USA, plants grown by us follow ecological and organic practices (NOFA standards). Eco friendly business.
No chemical fertilizers, fungicides or herbicides are used. I strive to minimize waste production, by recycling & reusing waste, reducing the use of non natural items (plastic pots) in the growing process.
This gives the pollinators a safe space to be attracted and nourished by plants that will not hurt them due any chemicals use.
