The Hamilton Pollinator Paradise Project is a collaborative initiative of Butterflyway Hamilton, Environment Hamilton and the Hamilton Naturalists' Club with support from various funders. We are working with the community to build a pollinator corridor across the City of Hamilton by planting native plant species to create suitable habitat. Our work promotes and enhances Hamilton's unique biodiversity. The project also shares information and resources about why pollinators are in trouble and what other actions people can take. By creating connected habitats across the City we will also be increasing the resiliency of our neighborhoods.
Our Strategy
To reach our goal, we focus on city-wide community engagement and education, as well as seeking to inform policy on the local, provincial and federal level. Mapping the project's "pollinator sites" is ongoing and as the map gets filled in, it demonstrates that the community is contributing by creating pollinator habitats. We are also furthering awareness and participation to improve biodiversity in the city, including the Hamilton Monarch Awards to demonstrate appreciation for gardening for the benefit of nature.
