Ecological Impact
Pollinator Species Richness
Pollinator species richness increased by over 155% following the Buzzing Blooms intervention, rising from 18 to 46 species across study sites.
Pollinator Activity
Pollinator activity increased significantly after the introduction of pollinator gardens. Bee activity rose to 300 indexed units, while butterfly activity increased to 280 indicating improved habitat quality and ecosystem function.
Social & Psychological Impact
Nature-based, structured environments led to measurable improvements in task completion, reduced anxiety indicators and stronger peer interaction among participating children.
Learning & Behavioural Outcomes
Children interacting with Buzzing Blooms gardens demonstrated:
- Increased focus and sustained attention
- Improved emotional regulation
- Higher participation and curiosity
- Greater confidence and self-efficacy
