ACD's Pollinator Conservation Programs, Successful in 2024!
We collected over 3.2 pounds of native wildflower seed with the help of volunteers. Photo: Volunteers show off native seed collected at Mikkelson Wildlife Management Area.
We surveyed over 14 acres, at 5 sites, for monarch butterflies, caterpillars, and the native blooming nectar plants they need to survive. Photo: Volunteers survey a prairie at Cedar Creek Conservation Area for monarch butterflies and blooming wildflowers.
ACD received funding for building pollinator habitat corridors in residential areas through the Lawns to Legumes Pollinator Pathways program. This grant will allow us to install 15 acres of pollinator habitat over the next 2-years.
ACD received a Habitat Enhancement Landscape Program (HELP) grant from the MN Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) to enhance 120 acres of habitat for pollinators. Key activities will include diversifying wildflower species available in natural areas and planting additional acres of pollinator habitat.
ACD's pollinator conservation programs were made possible by grant funding from BWSR and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation's Monarch Conservation program. For more information contact Logan Olson, Restoration Technician, at
