93% of Iowa’s land is dedicated solely to mono-crops making the state one of the most altered landscapes on earth. Learn how to create a native sanctuary in whatever space you have available, and do your part to give back to the pollinators.

Karelyn “Kari” Pohl worked as a science teacher in the Cedar Rapids Community School District before joining Integrated DNA Technologies as a development scientist. She holds a B.A. in biology from the University of Northern Iowa and an M.A. from Montana State University-Bozeman. Kari has been an Iowa State Extension Master Gardener since 2018 and has been involved in gardening for many years, starting with small containers and raised beds. She is passionate about sustainable agriculture and supporting pollinators and is developing her acre of land into a homestead.
