The Ecological Problem
Butterflies and other pollinators have experienced significant declines across the globe. The Monarch butterfly population alone has decreased up to 75-90% in the last two decades.
You Can Help! It's Easy!
The most effective way you can help is by planting a pollinator-friendly garden with milkweed for the Monarchs to lay their eggs. There are many native plants that are also great for other butterflies, bees, humming birds, and pollinators.
Benefits of Native Plants
Micihgan native plants are healthy for the pollinators and are healthy for you. Suburban lawns on average have 10 times more chemical pesticides than farms. Native plants are better adapted to our climate:
• Eliminate the need for toxic
• Provides a safe environment for our wildlife and families
• Low maintenance,
• Take less water,
• And feeds the birds too!
Our Mission
Rochester Pollinators mission is to provide education and resources to preserve the Monarch butterfly and pollinator population. By reintroducing Michigan native plants into local landscapes including home gardens, businesses and municipal landscapes, we can help our local pollinators flourish!
All proceeds go toward saving our local pollinators.
