Lots of little lives depend on fallen leaves to survive the long cold winter months. 🍂🍂⁠⁣ ⁠⁣ Properly protecting our pollinators needs more than planting wildflowers in the spring - it's also important to leave them a bed of leaves on the ground in autumn! ⁠⁣ ⁠⁣ From bumblebees to caterpillars and butterfly cocoons, a whole bunch of critters rely on leaves to help hibernate through the winter. So this year, go easy on the rake and remember to #LeaveTheLeaves 🧡🍁⁠⁣ ⁣ Repost from our friends across the pond at greenpeaceuk 💚⁣ ⁠.⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #nature #autumn #environment #savethebees #protectnature #biodiversity #urbangreening #lawncare #protectpollinators⁣
