Pollinator Week 2026 Is Almost Here
Every year, Pollinator Week brings attention to one of the most important parts of our natural world.
Bees, butterflies, moths, hummingbirds, bats, and other pollinators are responsible for supporting ecosystems, food systems, and biodiversity across the planet. Without them, much of the food we eat and the landscapes we depend on would not exist in the same way.
Pollinator Week is a time to learn, observe, and take action.
It is also a reminder that protecting pollinators is not just a seasonal effort it is something we can do every day.
At The Pollinators Network, we are preparing to highlight events, stories, and community efforts across New York, Pennsylvania, and the broader Northeast region.
Why Pollinator Week
Matters
Pollinator Week is a national celebration focused on raising awareness about pollinators and their role in the environment.
It highlights:
• The importance of bees and native pollinators
• The connection between pollinators and food systems
• The role of native plants and habitats
• Conservation efforts happening in local communities
• Education for families, schools, and future generations
This week brings together scientists, educators, gardeners, organizations, and communities with a shared mission: protect pollinators and the ecosystems they support.
We encourage everyone to visit a local garden, farm, park, or environmental center to learn more about what is happening in their area during Pollinator Week.
