TITLE PROMOTING POLLINATORS

A statewide effort to promote native pollinators through habitat improvement -All 10 NH Conservation Districts participating -Project is managed by SCCD for NHACD -Funded by NHDAMF (Specialty Crop Block Grant) -Culminates in a Regional Pollinator Summit in 2015 (stay tuned!)

Demonstration Plantings PROMOTING POLLINATORS

Raising Awareness PROMOTING POLLINATORS

- Habitat Loss - Pesticides - Management Practices - Competition from non-natives - Pathogens - Climate Change Threats

Main Groups: Honey, Bumble, Squash, Mason, Sweat, Carpenter, Mining 250+ Species!

Habitat - Nesting PROMOTING POLLINATORS *Tunneling or Wood-boring Bees (eg. carpenter and many Osmia (mason) species) - favor soft woods, dead wood, or snags *Cavity-Nesting Bees (eg. leafcutting and mason (Osmia)) - use preexisting cavities or holes, rely on old bee nests, beetle tunnels, bramble stems, etc. *Ground-Nesting Bees (ex. Andrena) - nest in the soil, but type depends on the species. Ranges from loose, sandy soils to smooth, packed soils, and/or flat, bare ground, vertical banks, and/or near the base of plants,etc.

Habitat - Nesting PROMOTING POLLINATORS Holes 5/16- to 7/16-inch

Habitat – Pasture Considerations PROMOTING POLLINATORS LOCATION – EDGES ARE BETTER BEES NEED SUN (and water) FORAGE DISTANCE – smaller bees < 500’, larger up to 1 mile, but feet is best VEGETATION – larger clumps (<3’), species, range of bloom times, include some tall grasses

Habitat - Food PROMOTING POLLINATORS Flower Pollen and Nectar

Habitat – Flower Considerations PROMOTING POLLINATORS Native “straight” species Brightly colored with petals that are usually white, blue, yellow or a mix Sweetly aromatic or minty Open in daytime Provide landing platforms Bilaterally symmetrical (not always) Tubular with nectar at base of tube

TITLE PROMOTING POLLINATORS - FOOD
