What are Pollinator Pathways?
Pollinator pathways are networks of native plant gardens in close proximity
that support bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and other vital pollinators.
Pollinators will survive by finding nutrition and habitat in pesticide-free gardens that
they can access easily.
The Village and Town of Ossining and the Village of Briarcliff Manor have joined forces to create pollinator pathways.
The Environmental Advisory Council of Briarcliff Manor and the Environmental Advisory Committee of the Town of Ossining worked together to create this website.
See the pollinator gardens in our area.
To encourage residents to plant pesticide-free native plant gardens, this website and map were created to show the existing private and municipal pathways. Just click the map button.

There are many websites about pollinator gardens that have good native plant lists and sample garden designs. Check them out!
