What is a Pollinator Pathway?
-
pesticide-free corridors of native plants that provide nutrition and habitat for pollinators
-
these protected corridors are created from a partnership of public and private properties
-
even the smallest of available green spaces like flower boxes and curb strips can be part of the pathway
How to Join
• include native plants on your property
and manage invasive species
• do not use pesticides and herbicides (pesticide policy & FAQ here)
• rethink your lawn--mow higher and less often; consider reducing lawn size by adding shrubs, trees, a mini meadow; leave some bare ground and dead wood for nesting native bees; leave some autumn leaves for overwintering eggs and pupae of pollinating insects
• help spread the word by ordering a 6" or 12" sign showing your yard is on the Pollinator Pathway--here's how
