Redmond urges residents to support Pollinator Week with garden actions
Summary
City announcement encouraged residents to support Pollinator Week (noted as June ’22 in the announcement), explaining that about 75% of flowering plant species need animal pollinators and suggesting homeowners help protect pollinators in yards and gardens.
Ryan Goodman, a member of the City of Redmond customer experience team, encouraged residents to “support the birds, bats, bees, butterflies, beetles, and small mammals that support us this Pollinator Week, June '22.”
Goodman said, “About 75% of all flowering plant species need animal pollinators for reproduction, and you can help protect them in your yard or garden.” The recorded announcement did not provide specific local programs, planting guides, or distribution events tied to the city’s efforts; those items were not specified.
The message concluded the City News Now segment with a general call to action for residents to help pollinators at home.
