The bee lawn seed mixture is a combination of fine fescue turfgrass and low growing pollinator-friendly flowers designed to provide residents with a sustainable greenspace that can withstand light to moderate foot traffic, while providing high-quality food for our at-risk pollinators. The bee lawn mix was developed by researchers at the University of Minnesota. More than 65 bee species have been observed on bee lawns in Minnesota alone, and almost 90% of those species are native. Bee lawns are easy to manage - they are drought tolerant, don’t need fertilizer, and only need to be mowed 2-4x per year.
 
Plant at a rate of 5 pounds per 1000 square feet.
