Utah Pollinator Habitat Program | Utah Department of Agriculture and Food Utah Pollinator Habitat Program Welcome to the Utah Pollinator Program. Pollinators play a vital role in our agricultural industry, local economies, and overall health of our ecosystems. Unfortunately, many pollinator populations have experienced drastic declines in recent years.
Population loss can be linked to several contributing factors including loss of habitat, changing climate and associated weather patterns, disease and pesticide use.

About the Utah Pollinator Habitat Program House Bill (HB) 224 was passed by the Utah legislature in March 2021.
It tasked the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food (UDAF) with creation of a three-year pilot program to improve pollinator habitat in Utah. In 2024, the program received funding to temporarily continue the “pilot” program.
Under the Utah pollinator pilot program (Utah Code 4-2-701), UDAF implemented one or more of several objectives to increase awareness of and habitat for pollinators, including the provision of grants for residents that cover up to 25 percent of the costs for the planting of pollinator-friendly native plants or seeds in Utah on private or public land.
In 2025, with the support of State Representative, Ashlee Matthews and Senator Evan Vickers, HB 251 was passed by the Utah legislature. This amendment made the Utah Pollinator Habitat Program an official and permanent fixture in Utah. The bill also increased the program’s cost-share from 25 percent to up to 75 percent of expenses related to planting pollinator-friendly native species.
Many pollinator species (bees, butterflies, moths, hummingbirds, and others) are in decline worldwide due to a combination of factors including habitat loss and degradation, pesticide use, and changing climate. Pollinators are key to the production of specialty food crops such as fruits, vegetables, tree nuts, and seeds which provide us with essential micronutrients.
The vast majority of pollinator species are wild, including more than 900 species of native bees that call Utah home. Some wild bees are excellent pollinators of Utah’s tree fruits, raspberries, squashes, melons, and cucumbers. These hardworking insects may rarely be noticed but they are key to ecosystem stability and food production.
Utah’s landowners and managers are instrumental in promoting land stewardship practices that enhance the health and diversity of our pollinators while supporting Utah’s specialty crop production. We encourage you to participate in this exciting and rewarding pollinator program.
