## Resource

Bees are secretly loving your messy yard—new research shows wild, unmanicured spaces with leaf piles and sticks attract more pollinators. Scientists tracked over 200 citizen scientists in St. Louis via Shutterbee and found that bees thrive in natural, cluttered habitats because they offer vital nesting spots and moisture. Even in cities, native bee diversity is staggering—with over 200 species in St. Louis alone. The takeaway? Let the leaves stay. Your garden doesn’t need to be perfect to help bees.
