We plant Nebraska for healthy people, vibrant communities and a resilient environment.
Do you have a balcony, patio, driveway, or tiny yard? You can still grow an amazing garden and attract pollinators to it!
This week on the Plant Nebraska Podcast, Sarah and Hanna talk with Jeremie Fant from the Chicago Botanic Garden about container gardening beyond the basics. Learn how native plants, perennials, shrubs, and even small trees can thrive in pots, support pollinators and survive Midwest winters.
Whether you're gardening in an apartment or looking to add more growing space at home, this episode is packed with practical tips and inspiration to help you experiment and grow more plants in more places.

The good news is: you can help! Over on our blog, Bumble Bee Atlas Project Manager Genevieve Pugesek of the Xerces Society offers more information and 3 concrete steps to take that will help the livelihood of our bumble bee friends.
