The best of the best. Our NextGen pollinator habitat projects have been documented to provide increased benefits vs. other pollinator conservation programs. 👀🐝 Results from study here: https://bit.ly/4dS3zCE

In the latest #JSWC, Spaeth et al. use the USDA Grazing Land National Resources Inventory and field studies to demonstrate the usefulness of large-scale resource inventories, describe general rangeland condition, evaluate resource concerns with specific information about status of native plants and introduced species, assess the status of plant species that are important in the life cycle of pollinating insects and determine the economic benefits of applying conservation practices.

Did you know, the demand for natural, native landscaping is increasing among homeowners, who want to protect ecosystems and restore biodiversity in their private backyards? Conservation communities and rewilding are also becoming popular due to the scarcity of land. Homeowners are conscious of their impact on the environment and make changes, such as using native plants and avoiding cultivars, to make a difference. #homeowners #conservation #landscape #nativeplants #didyouknow

🗺 Forever protection means forever. Not only does NALT ensure that conservation lands are protected from subdivision or development in the future, we also conduct annual monitoring for each of our 570+ conservation easements to ensure that the integrity of the conservation purposes remains intact. 🥾Monitoring also offers the opportunity to engage with our landowners to discuss their needs and concerns, whether it be a desire to mitigate for invasive species, improve management, or initiate projects like habitat enhancement, pollinator meadow installations, or conduct inventories on site. Beyond this interaction with existing landowners, we encourage individuals that are not engaged in a conservation easement with NALT to reach out if you have questions about these types of projects. We are always happy to work with individuals to meet their conservation goals, whether their land is protected by easement or not. To learn more about the monitoring process, visit our website at: https://lnkd.in/eezEaefg. For more information or to begin your own conservation journey, get in touch.
