HUNTINGTON Ƶ Birds, butterflies and bees rely on native plants as they migrate and live in the same ecosystem as people.

ƵOur pollinators, they really need our help right now. Monarch butterflies have recently been added to the endangered species list. And I know a lot of people are like, theyƵre bees and butterflies, why do we care? But they pollinate all of our food, and so without these pollinators, we will not have food,Ƶ said Amy Parsons-White, director of the sustainability department at Marshall University.
