Pollinator outreach blooms at Chicago’s Lincoln Park Zoo
Pollinators provide invaluable support to agricultural production and supply chains — a message that matters to farmers and Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago, especially during Pollinator Week.
To provide outreach about the importance of pollinators, the zoo hosted its third annual Pollinator Week education collaboration alongside community partners from Illinois Farm Bureau and the Cook County area. Tourists and residents of all ages visiting on June 18 had the chance to learn about the work pollinators do to support food production and how farmers and consumers alike can work to implement practices that can support them long-term.
