Monarch Butterfly

The Bee & Butterfly Habitat Fund (BBHF) identifies opportunities to establish critical pollinator habitat to help honey bee and monarch butterfly populations thrive.

I provide expert support to state, industrial, and private forest and native plant nurseries in 17 western states and the Pacific islands. This entails advising nursery managers and other plant professionals on a variety of issues and opportunities pertaining to seedling production, native plant restoration, and forest regeneration as well as assisting with problem solving and providing guidance in developing strategies to address seedling quality issues.

The Sustainable Ranching Initiative, started in 2011, works with landowners, corporations, industry-groups, NGOs, and government agencies to: protect lands from grassland conversion, improve management on working lands, and restore cropland or degraded lands back to native grassland.

World Wildlife Fund’s (WWF) Sustainable Ranching Initiative is partnering with ranchers across the Northern Great Plains to increase sustainable grassland management on one million acres in five years.

The Monarch Butterfly and Pollinators Conservation Fund supports work that advances the conservation of the monarch butterfly and other at-risk native insect pollinators.
