From Washington: A single person can spark a movement, and that is what happened when one resident started planting in her neighborhood. She began by planting flowers and then enlisted the help of her neighbors. The goal was to plant flowers that support bees, butterflies, and birds, which are essential for food production.

The resident, Kathy Sykes, hopes that her efforts will inspire others to take similar action. She is encouraging people across the country to plant flowers that keep pollinators alive, which in turn helps keep food on the table.

Further details about this initiative are available from the source, which provides more information about the neighborhood and its transformation.
