The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation is now accepting proposals for the Xerces Habitat Kit Program through April 4, 2025. This program has provided over 100,000 climate-smart native plants, such as milkweed and drought-tolerant wildflowers, to enhance habitats on farms, ranches, tribal lands, public spaces, and wildfire recovery areas.

Qualifying Projects

Kits are intended to be used to create or enhance monarch and pollinator habitat on working lands, public lands, tribal lands and private/non-working lands recovering from wildfires, with landowner or land manager collaboration. This includes farms, ranches, tribal land, post-wildfire recovery areas, urban farms or gardens, city parks, school gardens or other public areas. 

The kits are not intended to be used in home gardens.
