Webinar Summary:
Learn about the HEB Pollinator Grant for community based projects. Submittals due 11/30/2024

Webinar Description:
H-E-B is giving $50,000 to the Texas Master Naturalist program to pay for the initiative. Under the program, master naturalist chapters across the state can apply for project awards of up to $3,000 each to support community-based projects that enhance native pollinator populations and their habitats. The Pollinators for Texas initiative aims to have a visible impact in local communities through the creation and restoration of pollinator-friendly habitats. This includes establishing native plant gardens in public spaces and parks — also called wildscapes — and providing educational outreach to engage the public in conservation efforts. These projects will increase biodiversity, provide critical resources for pollinators like bees and butterflies, and engage the public in conservation efforts through educational and volunteer opportunities.
