MI HR0326

Encourages Michigan homeowners and landowners to plant native plants that support bee populations and create pollinator habitats.

Notes that pollinators generate an estimated $1 billion in annual value in Michigan through crop pollination and honey production, with one-third of state crops dependent on bee pollination.

Directs the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to work with Michigan State University Extension and the Michigan Nursery and Landscape Association to develop and post a list of native plants that support pollinators on the department website.

Requires copies of the resolution to be transmitted to the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Michigan State University Extension, and the Michigan Nursery and Landscape Association.
