THE POLLINATOR EFFECT:
WHAT’S AT STAKE
FRUITS & VEGETABLES
Pollinators are behind one in every three bites of food we eat — including staples like apples, tomatoes, and berries. Without them, entire sections of the grocery store would vanish.
NUTS & SEEDS
Pollinators make almonds, pistachios, and sunflowers possible — powering everything from granola bars to cooking oils. Without them, plant-based diets and global food systems would suffer.
EVERYDAY ITEMS
From cotton tees to your favorite IPA, pollination is behind more of your life than you think. Coffee, perfume, fresh flowers, and even your wardrobe all get a boost from pollinators.
OUR ECOSYSTEM
Pollinators are a keystone of healthy ecosystems, supporting the plants that feed entire food webs. When they thrive, birds, mammals, and countless other species thrive with them.
MEET THE POLLINATORS
BIRDS
Hummingbirds are nature’s high-speed couriers, sipping nectar and spreading pollen while moving faster than your camera can focus. Beauty, brains, and a beak full of purpose. Meet the birds ➜
BEES
Bees come in over 4,000 flavors in North America alone—from bumble to mason to the tiny sweat bee. They’re the MVPs of pollination. Meet the bees ➜
SIDEKICKS
Moths, beetles, flies—these low-key pollinators may not win popularity contests, but they’re out there working the night shift and cleanup crew. Just because they’re not flashy doesn’t mean they’re not vital. Meet the sidekicks ➜
BUTTERFLIES
Pollination isn’t their main gig, but butterflies still help out—gracefully flitting from flower to flower like it’s a garden runway. Bonus: they look amazing doing it. Meet the butterflies ➜
