Pollinator Pathway East Greenwich Our Pollinator Pathway is located at the Swift Community Center which is where the Town of East Greenwich has its Senior and Social Services. The Cindy-Wood Garden Club has taken on the project of adding a Pollinator Pathway to the south side of this town building. It is very visible and many people walk by and will be influenced by it. It took us weeks to prepare the soil as it had a very thick fabric under the soil which had been there for many years. There were 3 layers in some places. We are in the process of adding a variety of Native Plants. It is a work in progress.

Pollinator Pathway Ridgefield The Ridgefield Pollinator Pathway is a collaboration of Caudatowa Garden Club, Norwalk River Watershed Association, RACE, Ridgefield Conservation Commission, Ridgefield Garden Club, Ridgefield Parks and Recreation, Ridgefield Public Library, Woodcock Nature Center, and with the support of the Land Conservancy of Ridgefield, Norwalk River Valley Trail, Hudson-to-Housatonic Partnership, Highstead Foundation, and the community of Ridgefield. Our goal is to create a corridor of contiguous pollinator-friendly properties including the open spaces in Ridgefield and the adjacent private ones belonging to residents. Everyone in Ridgefield should consider taking part in the Pollinator Pathway project since the bees and butterflies don’t recognize the signs and only look for the nectar! We want to thank the following organizations for participating: Keeler Tavern, Jesse Lee Methodist Church, The Aldrich Museum, The Hickories, St. Stephen's Episcopal Church, Casagmo, ACT of CT, Nod Hill Brewery, Ridgefield High School, Scotland, Farmingville and Barlow Mountain elementary schools.

They had a blast helping to create a pollinator garden at the Rec Center. The garden encourages pollinators to visit our community. In addition, they spent time identifying native and invasive plants in highly- travelled areas around Ridgefield. Join the Pollinator Pathway Learn more about the Ridgefield Pollinator Pathway A Tour of Pollinator Gardens in Ridgefield, CT The Town of Ridgefield Connecticut has had a "Native Plants Only" policy on the record since it was adopted unanimously by the town's Board of Selectmen in 2022. The policy recognizes the importance of native plants to our ecosystem and the negative impact that non-native plants, invasive plants in particular, are having on our open spaces. Most native plant-eating insects, like the caterpillar of the Monarch butterfly, can only feed on native plants and sometimes only on one specific kind of native plant. When native plants are out-competed in woodlands, meadows, and parks by non-native plants (brought to the U.S. either unintentionally in shipments of other materials or intentionally as ornamentals plants for gardens), populations of native insects, birds and mammals that rely on them decline. The policy’s main provision states that 100% of new and replacement trees, shrubs, herbaceous perennials and ground cover plantings on municipal properties will be native to the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the U.S.. The policy also applies to any replacement plantings, including but not limited to trees, shrubs, and perennials felled by storms, disease, redevelopment/expansion, or other reasons. The Mid-Atlantic region was added to the policy scope in recognition that native species are expanding their ranges northward into the northeast as a result of climate change. info@pollinator-pathway.org
