area, and I am gaining a sense of what plantings might benefit them. What
I am also thinking about now are other goals for the plantings, such as for
pollinators. Ideally we ought to promote plantings that, when combined,
maximize as many ecological goals as possible. I would be grateful for
your thoughts on how this vision could be realized in an urban setting, and how
pollinators fit into an immediate area that is not food producing.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
