Audubon Vermont’s Bird and Bee Friendly Farming Project, works in collaboration with partner organizations and farms to develop, demonstrate, and promote conservation practices on farms that increase the abundance and diversity of native pollinator and bird species. These practices increase biodiversity, enhance the resilience of farmland to climate change, and reduce dependence on harmful pesticides and herbicides, while also maintaining economic viability on farm operations.
In the coming year Audubon Vermont will collaborate with farmers to better understand how rotational grazing practices can be compatible with grassland birds. Audubon will also develop a new data collection tool to improve the habitat assessment process and help us prioritize actions for habitat enhancements.
