Event Description

Bees in a vegetable garden lead to more abundant crops. Learn which types of bees are the greatest pollinators in a food garden, how to attract them, and provide what they need to thrive in your home garden or balcony. Understand the mechanism of pollination via different types of bees (for example, bumblebees buzz pollinate, mason bees have fuzzy bellies) and how this affects what they pollinate.
