Native Seed Booklet - Bees and Pollinators

Milkweed, bergamot, fennel beetle and sunflower are native to North America. They were therefore present here long before the arrival of European explorers and evolved with our local fauna. In addition to producing beautiful flowers that beautify any balcony or garden, they attract and feed bees, butterflies and hummingbirds. Planting these species is a concrete action you are taking to support biodiversity and the survival of local pollinators. And those winged workers will return the favor in exchange for that summery buffet of pollen and nectar. They will take the opportunity to visit the other flowers in your vegetable garden and thus promote productivity.

The seeds were grown in Montreal by the seed company Terre Promise without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers and were harvested and selected by hand. They are free of rights and reproducible.
