February 23 at 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Zoom Webinar
Event Navigation
If you can’t tell a fuzzy bumblebee from a miner bee and aren’t really sure what “buzz pollination” is, Rutgers ecologist Dr. Kim Russell will help you get to know the native bees in your yard–and what kinds of habitats they need. Learn how to create “pollinator ports” or islands of habitat that provide more than just flowers. Dr. Russell will share current research backed recommendations. You’ll come away with a new appreciation for the diversity of these critically important and fascinating insects and concrete steps to take in your yards to bolster habitat for native pollinators.
Webinar is free; suggested donation is $10. Registration closes at 5 PM the day of each webinar.
