Pollinator Pathway Program

Establishing pollinator-friendly habitats & food sources for bees, butterflies and birds
Establishing pollinator-friendly habitats & food sources for bees, butterflies and birds

What are pollinators?
• birds, bees, butterflies and other insects, bats and other mammals, rodents and amphibians

What do they do?
• move pollen from one plant to another, enabling cross fertilization and allowing the reproduction and the growth of new plants — 35% of our food grows as a result of the work pollinators do

What is theatening our pollinators?
• widespread application of pesticides and other chemicals on lawns, landscaped plantings, and agricultural crops
• climate changes that lead to lack of larval host plants
• loss of habitat as more and more natural environments become urban and suburban
• the spread of invasive (non-native) plants

What is a Pollinator Pathway?
• a wildlife corridor providing habitat and nutrition for pollinators
• includes healthy yards and public spaces for pollinators, pets & families
