Welcome to Pollinator to Plate! I'm so glad you're here.

If you've ever stopped in a garden to watch a bumble bee on a blossom or wondered how a tiny flower turns into the food on your dinner table, you're in the right place.

Pollinator to Plate was created to bridge the gap between conservation and everyday life. It shows how even the tiniest creatures play a vital role in global food production. 

My Mission

For as long as I can remember, I've been interested in the environment and conservation, even as a child when I didn't really know what that meant. 

My heart belongs to protecting biodiversity. I hold a B.S. in Environmental Science with a concentration in Fish and Wildlife Management. It was in a class where I first learned that 1 out of 3 bites of food are due to animal pollination. That's a staggering percentage when you think about it. 

I guess I look at outdoor spaces a little differently than most people. I hope you're here because you do to.
