A pollinator garden is more than flowers. It needs overlap across the growing season, locally useful plants, places to nest or overwinter, and maintenance that does not erase the habitat.
This is a free, print-friendly checklist for planning and observing a pollinator garden. It guides individuals, families, students, and teachers through season-long bloom, host plants, water, shelter, reduced pesticide risk, and simple observation notes. It can be used as a planning prompt for home, church, community, or school gardens while allowing users to adapt plant choices to local conditions.
