Improve Biodiversity

  • Hedgerows

    Planting hedgerows can enhance weed control and protect the quality of both air and water.

    Depending on the chosen plant, hedgerows can provide habitat for beneficial insects and birds.

  • Bee Forage

    Bee forage can be planted in alleys or as hedgerows to support the health of bees.

    In almond orchards, this can boost the health of bees before and after bloom.

  • Cover Crops

    Cover crops increase biodiversity in the soil by feeding fungi and bacteria, which in turn feed earthworms and insects.

    Earthworms tunnel through the soil creating pathways for roots, water, and air.

  • Minimize Chemical Inputs

    Using less herbicides and fertilizers protects bacteria, fungi, and earthworm populations.
