Pollinator Pathway Cape Cod
We are delighted to be a part of Pollinator Pathway Cape Cod!
Pollinator Pathway Cape Cod is a regional initiative to increase pollinator-friendly habitats and food sources for bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and other pollinating insects and wildlife across Cape Cod.
Our goal is to create corridors of native trees, shrubs, and flowers that birds, bees, butterflies, and other insects can rely on as they travel throughout Cape Cod. We are working to EDUCATE towns, businesses, organizations, and home gardeners on the importance of creating pollinator friendly landscapes, ENGAGE them in the project, and DEMONSTRATE the beauty of such gardens through highly visible demonstration gardens.
It is easy to support the movement by taking some simple, effective steps:
- ADD native plants to your garden;
- SUBTRACT a little more of your managed grass lawn;
- AVOID chemical fertilizers and herbicides/pesticides; and
- LEAVE the leaves – go easy on fall cleanup and help our pollinators have a winter home.
