Resources from which to learn more

There have been a ton of wonderful books published recently on native plants and pollinators.  Here are some from which I've learned quite a bit.

Win-Win Ecology by Michael Rosenzweig, who coined the term reconciliation ecology.  One of my favorites.

 

Timber Press has a whole section of books about native plants and creating wildlife habitat.

 Doug Tallamy has written a few books published by Timber.  His first book Bringing Nature Home got a lot of attention, with good reason, providing a push that really helped the "plant native plants!" movement get going.  The follow-up to this book is Nature's Best Hope, another very good narrative relating to how and why we need to garden for wildlife. 

I really enjoyed Forgotten Pollinators.

I also really like this book,  Climate Change Gardening for the South by Barbara Sullivan. 

The Xerces Society has recently published many resources about pollinators. https://xerces.org/publications   A couple of my favorites are Attracting Native Pollinators and Gardening for Butterflies. 

This book, Noah's Garden, by Sara Stein was one of the first to inspire me.

Pollinators of Native Plants by Heather Holm is also a fun book, published by Pollinator Press.  (A whole publishing company for pollinators?!  Maybe we have a chance to save the world after all!)   

Tracks and Sign of Insects and other Invertebrates is a really fun book to flip through.
