[Pollinator] Pollinator meadows in brownfields

[Phyllis Stiles]

Dear All:

Could you share information/research regarding whether contaminants in
brownfields impact the pollinators that forage, or in the case of
lepidoptera, feed on leaves, there?  A couple of Bee City USA affiliates
have old brownfields they would like to plant as pollinator meadows, but
naturally, they're concerned about the risk.

Thanks for your advice.

warmly, Phyl
