Disney DIY: Make A Pollinator Garden At Home With Some Help From a Disney Expert
Earth Day 2020 may have come and gone but that doesn’t mean you can’t practice Earth Day every day at home! We’ve got the perfect family project for those looking to give back to nature!
As you may have learned from the “it’s tough to be a bug” attraction at Disneyland and Walt Disney World, flies, beetles, bees and butterflies help pollinate plants and flowers. This has an impact on everything from the food we eat to the air we breath. As an example more than 75% of the crops in the world are pollinators!
So why not take some time this week to say “Thank You” to our flower-fueling friends and make a pollinator-friendly garden of your own! Disney hs many of them scattered throughout the property!
Dr Zak Gezon, Disney Conservation Manager, has released an awesome video walking us through how we can create pollinator-friendly gardens at home.
Let’s take a look at this short video:
So follow Dr. Zak’s lead and start making your very own garden for the bees and butterflies in your neighborhood. Here are the written instructions to help you get started:
We can’t think of a better person to share his Pollinator Garden “know-how” with us! Dr. Zak and his team are responsible for looking after the numerous pollinator gardens around Walt Disney World including one at Disney’s solar power facility. This is also just one of the many efforts put forward by the Disney Conservation Fund which has provided more than $2 million to support 26 projects across North America to save butterflies.
