Elizabeth Elle: Planting for Pollinators

You may have heard that pollinators are in decline.  This presentation will introduce you to the bees of BC (there are more than 400 species!), provide context for why some of them are in trouble, and give advice on what you can do to support them:  plant a garden!  You'll learn about some of the best plants for pollinators here in BC's South Coast, and how to look at flowers like pollinators do, so you can make bee-friendly choices at the garden store.
