Pollinator Garden
The EARTH Limited Nature Center is now an official Pollinator Pathway!
The Pollinator Pathway project is a grassroots movement that connects public and private green spaces to create continuous, pesticide-free corridors of native plants. These connected habitats provide vital food, shelter, and migration routes for native bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and other pollinators facing habitat loss and population decline.

With the creation of our native pollinator gardens, the EARTH Nature Center has seen a huge increase in native wildlife utilizing our property. As of this fall, we are also a Certified Wildlife Habitat through the National Wildlife Federation and a Monarch Waystation through Monarch Watch. Come visit our native gardens at the Nature Center to learn more about how you can support native species and get involved.
