The City of Bend's Beautification Program is seeking volunteers to help support the Pollinator Pathway Project, a new initiative that aims to create a continuous corridor of native pollinator gardens between residences, businesses, parks and open spaces throughout Bend and beyond. Bend's Beautification Program is joining other public and private partners in supporting this work to provide habitats for pollinators such as butterflies, bees and hummingbirds. The City is allowing some projects to occur on some City-owned properties, and using its volunteers for this effort. Local business Oregrown is paying for plant materials and providing volunteers from its staff. Native pollinator plants were recently installed at Franklin's Corner Community Garden at NE 9th Street and Franklin Avenue, and the Wall and Bond Pocket Park. Other efforts include plantings on the Veteran's Memorial Bridge today (May 27) and within the new Neighborhood Greenways traffic
