ANOTHER WAY TO HELP OUR WILD BIRDS, LEARN ABOUT POLLINATOR PATHWAY BEND
MISSION:
Create and connect pesticide-free habitat to support imperiled native pollinators.
NATIVE POLLINATORS ARE IN TROUBLE
Facing threats like habitat loss, disease, invasive species and a changing climate, Central Oregon’s birds, bats, bees, butterflies and moths need your help!
Creating connected corridors of pesticide-free habitat restores their ability to nest and forage across urban expanses, and increases the biodiversity and health of our wildlife and gardens.
Adding more native plants will create food sources for birds, encourage pollinators and restore habitat diversity. Pollinator Pathway Bend has great resources to help you create bird and pollinator habitat.
YOU CAN HELP!
There are many ways to get involved with Pollinator Pathway Bend. From volunteering to plant or pull weeds to creating your own pollinator garden or advocating at community events, we welcome all levels of expertise and enthusiasm.
