Please see the attached NRCS National Bulletin and Guidance for a special Honey
Bee Pollinator effort focused upon increasing quality honey bee forage in ND,
SD, MN, WI, and MI. Feel free to share this with others whom you believe
will have interest. If your agency/NGO/association has any similar or
complementary efforts taking place in these 5 states, I would be very interested
in your sharing such information with me.</SPAN></P>
