Thank you!
We want to say a big “Thank you!” to all our financial supporters who help us provide free educational content about the plants, pollinators, and wildlife that can be found in our yards and communities.
Join our financial supporters in helping us produce free content for everyone.
It doesn’t take much if we all work together. If everyone who enjoys our content contributed just $2-3 / month (or the cost of one bottle of soda / month), we would be able to produce a whole year’s worth of videos, podcasts, blogs, newsletters, and other free content.
Ways to contribute include:
- Become a Patron and make monthly donations.
- Make a one-time donation online.
- Mail a check to Grassy Roads LLC, P.O. Box 652, Glasgow, KY 42142-0652.
Other ways you can support us without you having to pay anything extra
We know that money can be really tight sometimes. And not everyone may be able to contribute, no matter how much they may want to.
If you find yourself in this situation, but still want to do something, then doing the following activities will also help support Backyard Ecology without costing you anything.
- Share our content with others and help us grow our audience so we can help more people.
- Watch our YouTube videos – we get a small amount of ad revenue from YouTube based on how many hours our videos are watched every month.
- If you’re planning to shop on Amazon, first go to our recommendation page and click on any of the Amazon links, then do your normal shopping. Amazon will pay us a small commission for sending you to them – it comes at no extra cost to you and you don’t even have to buy the recommended item.
Thank you!
These amazing individuals go above and beyond every month to provide financial support which helps us create so much free content for everyone to enjoy and learn from.

Backyard Ecology’s Guiding Principles:
🦋 Curiosity: Nature is fun, interesting, and worth exploring. We will never know everything. Answers lead to more questions. That’s half the fun.
🦋 Balanced: You don’t have to choose. You can support nature AND have a beautiful property that you can enjoy and be proud of.
🦋 Science informed: Habitat creation and management should be based on the latest scientific research available. This is true regardless of whether you’re working in a small garden or on hundreds of acres.
🦋 Stewardship: Anyone can make a positive difference in the natural world and leave an ecological legacy on their property.
