Create a welcoming home for native pollinators and boost your garden's health!
Bees are the heroes of our gardens, helping pollinate our plants for free. In this hands-on workshop, you'll discover how easy it is to support local pollinators by building a bee hotel. You'll learn why these small creatures are so important, and you'll get to create a bee hotel to take home and install in your own backyard! In this workshop, you'll learn:
- What a bee hotel is and why it's important
- How to attract and support native pollinators
- How to safely build your very own bee hotel to take home!
Fee: $10 (includes all materials)
No experience needed, just bring your creativity and love for nature!
All materials will be provided, and you'll leave with a beautiful bee hotel ready to install in your garden.
Let's build a better world for bees, one garden at a time!
