This is a great program to help out anyone that is curious about planting native pollinators! Apply before Nov. 30th for the spring grant!

🐝🦋 Support pollinators with a Lawns to Legumes grant!

⏰ Apply by November 30 for a chance to receive a Spring 2026 grant. Open to all Minnesotans, Lawns to Legumes offers reimbursement-based funding of up to $400 to create pollinator habitat in your yard or other residential outdoor space.

🌼 Why plant for pollinators? Minnesota is home to over 500 native bee species, along with many butterflies, moths, and other pollinators. These creatures are essential to ecosystem health — but many have faced population declines. Lawns to Legumes helps reverse this trend by created connect corridors of pollinator-friendly plantings across the state.

🍂 Not a gardener? No problem. Participants get access to webinars, online resources, and coaching support to make planting pollinator habitat simple and successful.

Lawns to Legumes is coordinated by the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources and Blue Thumb, made possible by the Minnesota State General Fund. Learn more and apply: https://bluethumb.org/lawns-to-legumes/apply/
