Audubon Vermont’s Bird and Bee Friendly Farming Project works in collaboration with partner organizations and farms to develop, demonstrate, and promote conservation practices that increase the abundance and diversity of native pollinator and bird species. These practices enhance biodiversity, improve the resilience of farmland to climate change, and reduce dependence on harmful pesticides and herbicides while maintaining economic viability for farm operations.

In the coming year, Audubon Vermont will collaborate with farmers to better understand how rotational grazing practices can support grassland birds. Audubon will also develop a new data collection tool to improve the habitat assessment process and help prioritize actions for habitat enhancements.
