Critical pollinator and wildlife habitat is Disappearing in the U.S.

We Can Reverse This Trend!
With the help of generous corporate sponsors and individual donors, The Bee & Butterfly Habitat Fund is establishing high quality pollinator habitat to ensure honey bee and monarch butterfly populations thrive. We’re working with landowners, conservationists, scientists and beekeepers to build healthy and sustainable pollinator habitat with maximum benefits. Our solution precisely targets pollinators’ needs by engineering projects that provide appropriate bloom diversity, density and duration to optimize forage potential.
How Does it Work?
We identify private, public and corporate projects with the highest potential to create pollinator habitat, then design a precision habitat mix to maximize pollinator support on that individual project. Each project receives free or heavily discounted pollinator seed mixes and the guidance to prepare, establish and maintain the project for a minimum of 5 years.
States With Existing Programs
The Midwest is a critical area for
honey bees and other pollinators. 
Efforts focused here support U.S.
honey production, pollination, and
​native pollinators.
Seed A Legacy
The Seed A Legacy Pollinator Habitat Program is available for private, public and corporate lands in a 12-state region of the country critical to pollinator health and habitat needs.

Everyone Can Help

  • Donate:  Every dollar raised means more pollinator habitat created.
  • Apply for a project:  Applications are accepted year-round.  
  • Help promote our efforts: Please like and follow the BBHF on Facebook and promote our efforts to your Facebook friends.
  • Become a corporate sponsor: With proven results, our NextGen Habitat Projects are making a difference for honey bees, monarch butterflies, and other native pollinators.

The Bee & Butterfly Habitat Fund’s habitat programs provide proven pollinator benefits including high-quality forage for honey bees and other pollinators across the entire growing season. Preliminary data shows that NextGen Habitat Projects support some of the highest abundance and diversity of plants preferred by honey bees and other pollinators. “High-quality forage goes hand-in-hand with pollinator health and productivity,” - Dr. Clint Otto, Research Ecologist with the US Geologic Survey.
