Bee Lawns, also called Pollinator Lawns are low input, intentionally managed lawns, that are beneficial to the environment and homeowners alike. They consist of turfgrass mixed with forbs and/or legumes with flowers that pollinators can forage for nectar and pollen.  They are managed using less fertilizer, less water and less herbicides, but still have a very usable lawn. Start with just a portion of the landscape and adjust as time and resources allow.
