Pollinators, essential to maintaining human food sources as well as food for most other animals and plants, are under stress. Many pollinator populations are in decline, primarily because of loss of nesting and feeding habitats.
At the Klamath National Forest Headquarters, a small garden demonstrates how it is possible to help local pollinators. The garden designed specifically to be a waystation for migrating monarchs has several local plants beneficial for our local pollinators.
Learn more about our garden and how you can develop your garden to support pollinators.
Black bears are common on the Klamath National Forest. To enjoy your visit safely, be sure to take home trash, garbage, and anything that could smell interesting to a bear (gum, toothpaste, soap) Pack it In/Pack it Out. Dispose of trash at home, not in the forest where it can become a focus for bears looking for food. The bears (and you) will be healthier and safer if the bears eat their natural food in the forest.
There are easy things you can do while enjoying your national public lands to protect yourself and bears from harmful encounters. This brochure should help get you started (download brochure .pdf file)
