    About Pollinate Barrie:

    Ashley Hammell and Kelly Patterson McGrath created Pollinate Barrie in 2022 as a community-led, grassroots organization to educate, encourage, inspire and support native eco-system restoration within Barrie and beyond. They work with individuals, other community groups, schools, companies and municipalities to understand the importance of pollinators and native plants, and create habitat to support them. They are volunteers, and completely sustained and supported by volunteers. To learn more, visit Pollinate Barrie today.
