Pollinator Pathway
North Salem
The North Salem Pollinator Pathway is an initiative taken by North Salem Open Land Foundation (NSOLF, www.nsolf.org) and its partners in hopes of engaging and educating the North Salem community about the relationship between native plants and pollinators. Our goal is to maintain a pollinator-friendly environment by creating a corridor of interconnected properties – both private and public – that encourages the use of native plants and supports and promotes biodiversity.
Participate
Add native pollinator plants, shrubs or trees to your property, whether yard, garden, patio or balcony. Help to eliminate widespread application of pesticides and fertilizers. Spread the word by educating friends and neighbors.
Volunteer
Help spread awareness at farmers markets and public events, create, water and maintain public pollinator gardens and help manage invasive species in public parks. Motivate your organization’s members to help protect pollinators.

Please join us in our endeavor to attract bees, butterflies, birds and insects by planting native plants on your property. It can be as small as a container garden or as big as a meadow.
