Description
Environmental Health inspector Tiana Cervantes spends part of her job building pollinator habitats in collaboration with the Healthy Bees Healthy Lives campaign. Pollinator populations are in sharp decline, so Tiana has chosen to organize the construction of 150 patches and planted more than 200 trees, providing pesticide-free nutrition for pollinators throughout Minneapolis.

There's
been
recent
research,
that's
showing
that
bee
populations
are
declining,
so
we're
doing
this
because
there
is
habitat
loss
going
on.
There
is
different
pesticides
that
are
harming
our
bee
populations
and
then
they're
also
diseases
and
parasites
a
little
bit
just
rough
it
up
a
little
bit
and
then
put
that
plan
through
my
thready
draft.
You
go
we're
putting
these
patches
in
to
provide
more
food
to
the
pollinators
here
and
sit
in
the
intercessor.
