Very excited that CLT has transferred the Pollinator Pathway garden to the Coalition for a Sustainable Cheshire.

CSC has been with the garden since the first shovel of dirt and we look forward to planting in Spring 2021 with the extended vision of helping more Monarch butterflies, insects & pollinators and birds with additional Pollinator Pathway native plant gardens in the future!
