Honey Bees, Flowers, and Pollination: We Need the Bees! @ William Hall
Saturday, May 16 | 2:00pm - 3:00pm

Honey bees are essential for our food supply, but they are endangered due to our widespread use of pesticides. Your understanding of the importance of bees can make a difference. Learn how hives work, how bees keep busy throughout the year, how best to manage your garden to attract bees and keep them thriving, and how to help spread the word: no bees, no food. This presentation comes just in time to celebrate World Bee Day on May 20.
