McCausland Natural Areas Manager, Morris Arboretum
Members: $30 • Non-members: $35

The Arboretum hosts a great diversity of native bees and ways to support these important insects. This workshop will be a hybrid of classroom learning about pollination ecology, field ID, and training on photography-based citizen science so that you can contribute data on our native bees. Then we will take a walk through the Natural Areas to put our ID skills and citizen science to practice through a variety of habitats. Wear good hiking shoes and bring a camera along, cell phone or other.
