2025 NAPPC Awards

Each year, the North American Pollinator Protection Campaign (NAPPC), in
conjunction with several partners, solicits nominations for eight
prestigious awards across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico: the *Pollinator
Advocate Award* (3 countries), the *Farmer-Rancher Pollinator Conservation
Award *(3 countries), the *Pollinator Roadside Management Award*, and
the *Pollinator
Electric Power Award*. Nominees demonstrate a profound understanding of the
crucial role pollinators play in sustaining food, culture, and ecosystems,
going the extra mile to support birds, bees, butterflies, moths, and bats.

NAPPC's acknowledgment of awardees aims to inspire and amplify efforts in
safeguarding North American pollinator populations. The winners are honored
at the annual North American Pollinator Protection Campaign Conference,
held every October. *Nominations for the 2025-26 Award Year are currently
open and can be submitted through their respective online forms by Sunday,
June 15th, 2025.*
