A Haven for Pollinators
The Native Pollinator Garden is a complete ecosystem which attracts all kinds of pollinators, from butterflies to moths and bees to birds. It also plays a critical role in the conservation of pollinators, which have been in decline due to loss of habitat and overuse of pesticides.
A Showcase of Native Plants
The Native Pollinator Garden features over 50 species of native perennials, vines, grasses and shrubs, with something blooming spring, summer and fall. And, once the plants are finished blooming, the garden provides much needed habitat for overwintering pollinators. The Native Pollinator Garden is maintained by community volunteers and Village staff, with no fertilizers or pesticides used.
A Place to Enjoy Nature
The Pollinator Pavilion is the focal point for the garden. Nestled with the existing trees as a backdrop, the Pavilion offers shade for visitors to overlook the garden and view educational signage about the plants and the pollinators. The “perch rock” provides close viewing of butterflies as they stop to drink from the rain puddles, and meandering paths lead visitors through the various parts of the garden.
