The Buzz About Native Bees

Thursday June 21, 2018 07:30 PM EDT
Cost: Free

From the venue:

<br>It’s a bug! It’s a fly! No, it’s a Native Bee! Georgia has more than 400 species of native bees. Unlike honeybees, the coloring of our native bees ranges from metallic blues and greens to the classic yellow and black of the bumblebee. Native bee sizes range from the dainty 3/16 of an inch of the masked bees to the lumbering one-plus inch of a carpenter bee. How do you tell the difference between these native bees and bugs? We can show you! Pandra Williams, of Beech Hollow Wildflower Farm, will talk about the nesting, forage and habitat needs of these tiny animals who are so important to making a good tomato, blueberries, broccoli...almost all of our fruit and veggies! Part of “Bee At Home In Decatur” - A city-wide celebration of National Pollinator Week 2018!
