While honeybees get all the headlines, our local native pollinators are the true engines of our ecosystem and they’re looking for a place to call home. Join us for this free program and learn about the role of native plants, native bees, and other pollinators. Leave this program with a better understanding of how to create a wildlife habitat for all pollinators.
