Encourage Native bee populations: Pollinator Workshop Saturday July 14

Have you noticed all the Bumble Bees in the garden this year?  

The Gulf Islands could be havens for native bee conservation while on the mainland habitat loss has put many at risk. Lora Morandin, research scientist and bee expert will be presenting a workshop Saturday July 14 starting at 11am at the Nature House at the Portal.

We will be looking at the Who, Why, How of Native Bees local to our area. Bring a bagged lunch, hat, water and sunscreen as we will be doing some bee identification outside.

Learn what you can do to protect and  encourage bee native populations essential to pollinating native plants and flowers on Thetis Island. as well the fruits and vegetable in our gardens. 

This is a ThINC sponsored event.
