13 September/October 2021 | THE DAVEY BULLETIN STEWARDSHIP When the Green Team at Kathy Hendricksen's church approached her about adding a garden to their property, Hendricksen, manager, business development and client services, Residential services, took the idea and ran. She thought expanding it to a pollinator garden would be just what the church grounds needed. Hendricksen, who has experience with her community's garden club, knew the importance of having native plants for pollinators. "Bee populations are declining in urban environments, so I wanted this garden to set an example for others that there are native plants that are easy to maintain and good for the environment that look nice too," Hendricksen said. The garden went on to be awarded with the Conservation@ Home certification from the University of Illinois for practicing environmentally sound landscape practices. POLLINATOR GARDEN EARNS CREDENTIALS This pollinator garden at Our Saviour's Lutheran Church in Arlington Heights, Illinois, earned national credentials for its design. " How do we promote solutions for clients? We're always listening. Over 20 years, I've learned how to build relationships quickly, from residential clients to utility clients. If you can listen carefully to people, you can make friends quickly in this industry. Be yourself and don't try to be someone you're not. Be yourself and the clients will respect that.
