Purpose: Wild pollinators such as butterflies and bees are crucial to human survival. The Butterflyway Project helps people create viable pollinator habitat in neighbourhoods across Canada.
About: From inception to 2022, the foundation trained 1,200 Butterflyway Rangers in hundreds of communities across Canada. Rangers connected with neighbours to create habitat gardens in residential yards, school and corporate grounds, boulevards and parks. When 12 or more patches are established, a new Butterflyway is born.
- In 2022, more than 100,000 native wildflowers and grasses planted
- Approximately 2,500 trees and shrubs planted
- 7,000 habitat gardens established
- 91 Butterflyways established (A “butterflyway” is 12 or more habitat gardens in close proximity.)
