The pursuit for and production of fresh and local fruits and vegetables is gaining popularity among homeowners and community groups in cities. Cultivating crops allows one to connect to natural processes, invest in food security and gain crucial life skills. It’s also relaxing, provides exercise and is a lot of fun. Although gardening is one of the most common activities among homeowners, and many are aware of the role of pollinators in plant reproduction, the various needs of pollinating insects are often overlooked in garden design and maintenance.
