Native Bees 101 (Virtual)

Did you know there are over 400 different native bee species within Pennsylvania that help pollinate all of our flowering plants?

Join Rebecca Lauver, Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay’s Chesapeake Conservation Corps Member, on March 18, 2021 at 6:30PM to learn more native bee facts like this! Rebecca is hosting a FREE interactive webinar all about native bees! Consider joining her to learn about the diversity of native bee genera within Pennsylvania – although this knowledge can be applied across the entire Chesapeake Bay watershed. Rebecca will also provide introductory information on native bee lifestyles, nutrient needs, and morphology. There will be an emphasis on the current pressures facing native bees and how we can best help them.

For those who live near Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, there will be the opportunity to sign up to receive a native plant kit that features a bee “hotel” and native plants like milkweed, goldenrod, and mountain mint.
