Together with Olivia\u2019s younger sister, and a host of interested visitors, awarded grants, and an interest in pollinators, history, and interdependence, they are changing Albany, NY for the better. Albany now has a Pollinator Day and a Nature Bus that brings people to places where they can connect once again with Nature, for free. It is becoming a \u201cPollinator Friendly\u201d city!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>And where we have pollinators, we have life!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Care to celebrate life? Learn about Monarchs in all their stages: egg, larvae, caterpillar, chrysalis, and butterfly. Find out how far they travel, and how to support their journey. Most of all, realize the changes we need to make to support our healthy future come in small steps that impact little creatures of our world in big ways. And anyone can make a strat at change in the space they have.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some links mentioned in our interview.
