Greenwich Pollinator Pathway installs gardens of native plants and trees to help create a corridor of habitat for pollinating insects, birds and other wildlife
We partner with Town departments and other organizations to increase the biodiversity of our landscapes and make them alive with life!
We work with the community to plant, educate and celebrate our natural environment
Guild Forest Project
Our newest (and most ambitious) project in partnership with Greenwich Audubon - Guild Forest
Greenwich Mural Project
A Guild Forest is a people-made forest that grows quickly into a functioning ecosystem.
We have cleared a 60’ diameter circle of invasive plants in a gap in the forest.
We will plant 1,500 trees and shrubs across 35 species in the Fall of 2026.
By 2030 we expect this forest to be self-sufficient, providing invaluable habitat for pollinating insects and birds and serve as a model for other Guild Forests.

After
Mural: The Greenwich Pollinator Pathway Mural Project celebrates the Town’s commitment to being a pollinator friendly community with a mural designed and painted by renown muralist, Nelson Rivas. The glass and steel-framed bus shelter houses a mini museum that educates passersby about pollinators, native plants, and the power of art. A 250 sq foot garden bookends the project with native plants and shrubs.
A riparian corridor along an estuarial stream that empties into Mill Pond across the Post Road and connects to Long Island Sound. Brought back native coastal habitat to the tidal stream within a park in the heart of Cos Cob.

Glenville Pollinator Pit Stops at American Legion and the Glenville Civic Center give the neighborhood lawn ecological function
