Pollinator Pathway Charlotte, Vermont Welcome to the Charlotte Pollinator Pathway! We are building biodiverse habits at key public buildings, along historic roads, and in private gardens throughout our rural community. One of our goals is to create gardens that host and feed pollinators, birds, and wildlife throughout the year. The gardens complement the vast tracks of conserved wetland, woodland, and prairie in our town of 50.3 square miles. Town Gardens The Butterfly Garden at Quaker's Corners The Pollinator Garden at Quaker's Corners began as an idea to bring back the Clouded Sulphur to Lewis Creek rd in Charlotte, Vermont. Host plants for the Clouded Sulphur include wild lupine and wild senna. This is an ideal nesting ground for bumblebees. There is also a wide selection of host plants for Lepidoptera. The garden resides on the corner of Roscoe rd and Lewis Creek rd on private property. This project is a collaboration between neighbors who are concerned about our local pollinator population. In September 2021, we established this garden with the support of Ernie Pomeleau, Red Wagon Plants, and Ward Preston LLC.

This garden has been established within the remains of a Quaker Schoolhouse located at the corner of Roscoe and Lewis Creek Rd, across from The Butterfly Garden at Quaker's Corners. The remains of the schoolhouse are simply a staircase and foundation. Within the foundation is a pollinator garden established by our small community. This garden is an ideal location for nesting bumblebees and contains a variety of host plants for Lepidoptera. a For a complete plant list and information about supporters of this garden visit: https://jgardensvt.blogspot.com/p/the-friendship-garden-at-quaker-corners.html The Butterfly Garden at the Quinlan Covered Bridge The Butterfly Garden at Quinlan Covered Bridge is designed to support butterflies and pollinators throughout their entire lifecycle. There are multiple host plants for eggs and larva and food essentials for adult butterflies, including some great annuals. Established in 2019, our community transformed a barren patch of land at the intersection of Lewis Creek road into a pollinator paradise. This garden is located at the intersection where Lewis Creek runs under the well-known Quinlan Covered Bridge. This garden in a UVM Master Gardener volunteer location.

The new garden beds around the south end of the building were designed particularly to support pollinators with herbs and flowers such as echinacea, bee balm, feverfew, anise hyssop, and coreopsis. But in fact, all of the gardens connected to the library serve as pollinator areas as well. Butterflies and bees frequent the liatris, rudbeckias, astilbes and other flowering plants in the rain garden, as well as the cheery flowers of the vegetables that grow in the nearby raised beds of the library food garden. 408 Hinesburg Road, Charlotte, VT 05445 School/Community garden with a small orchard, an outdoor seating area, compost shed with solar panel and pollinator gardens. The solar panel and two additional pollinator lanes were installed by the town energy committee in the summer of 2021 to demonstrate compatible dual land use.

Pollinator Pathway Bend Welcome to the Bend Pollinator Pathway! The Bend Pollinator Pathway is the first native pollinator habitat connectivity project in our region. Based on the success of this program out of the Northeastern United States, the plan is to grow to include all communities throughout Central Oregon and beyond. The goal of a Pollinator Pathway is to create a corridor of contiguous native pollinator gardens throughout our community using the adjacent lands of residents, businesses, parks and open spaces. The end result will be the connection of habitat within the range of most of our native pollinators. Pollinator Gardens in Bend How to “Bee” Part of the Bend Pollinator Pathway Plant Native Plants Wildflowers, shrubs and trees native to this area evolved with our local pollinators and provide them with the best nutrition and shelter for them to thrive Plant for continuous bloom throughout the spring, summer and fall Best to plant in blocks of the same species as it helps the pollinators to easily find their favorite food source as well as revisit that spot once discovered. Go Pesticide-Free This means a healthy yard for your children and pests, too Consider organic alternatives to fertilizers and mulch Provide Water A water feature such as a birdbath, fountain or a natural water source Create Nesting Habitat Leave some bare dirt patches for native ground nesting bees - especially helpful if they are south-facing, sun-warmed spots Leave the leaves and save the stems for overwintering bees, butterflies and other insects. Stems can be cut back in late spring to varying heights from 8”-24” for different species of stem-nesting bees. Don’t fret the small stuff . If you are lucky enough to attract them to your yard, leaf cutter bees use small pieces of leaves to create nests for their young. Look for these telltale signs that Leafcutter bees are nearby. Rethink the Lawn Leave grass clippings on your lawn rather than adding chemicals Mow less often, every 2-3 weeks is better than weekly Convert some of all of your lawn to native trees, shrubs or flowers Show Your Support Once you have created pollinator habitat in your yard or business property, you may purchase and display a medallion sign to let others know what you are doing and why. Join The Pollinator Pathway The Pollinator Pathway Pledge I pledge to support and protect local pollinators by adding native plants and refraining from the use of pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers. I will also Leave the Leaves and Save the Stems for year-round nesting habitat.
