When we think about making our cities greener, we often think about planting more trees and flowers.
But a truly biodiverse urban landscape needs more than plants.
🐝 Many solitary bees do not live in honey-bee hives. They need suitable places to nest and reproduce — including natural cavities, hollow stems and other protected spaces.
This means that creating habitat is about providing food + shelter + nesting spaces.
An Insect House is one simple way to introduce additional nesting habitat into gardens, balconies, schools, institutions and other urban green spaces.
At Rise Foundation, we believe urban biodiversity can begin with small, practical interventions that help us make space for the insects that share our cities.
🌱 Don’t just make a space green. Make it a habitat.
