These remarkable native pollinators contribute to the making of seeds and fruit in our gardens. About 90% of plants need or benefit from pollinators, and these little bees are major early season contributors for our crops. Through a series of readings and activities, this program will enlighten participants to the many aspects of sustaining backyard mason bee houses. Readings will be from “Sunshine and Pollen:  The Life of Mason Bees”, written by local author Monika Grünberg and Illustrated by Alexandra Troop. This unique program is sure to engage all in the seasonal understanding of sustainable gardening with these pollinators. Together we will make a mini mason bee house and a pollinator habitat in a pot to support the bees in your garden. Limit: 6 families
