Join the Big Day of Bugs iNaturalist Project!

June is Colorado Pollinator Month! Since 2017, PPAN has worked with Governors Hickenlooper and Polis to designate June as Colorado Pollinator Month. To celebrate, we're hosting the Big Day of Bugs with the Colorado Pollinator Network on June 27th at Denver Botanic Gardens to learn more about the importance of pollinators and what you can do to support pollinator habitats, health, and biodiversity. Get tickets here!

As a part of Colorado Pollinator Month and the Big Day of Bugs, we're encouraging folks to collect observations of pollinators and the plants that they visit within Colorado, USA through the month of June via iNaturalist.
