Ep. 493 - Being Friendly to Bees


Listen Later

"Benefitting pollinators" is a phrase that gets used a lot, especially in gardening circles. While most of us will agree with the sentiment, what does it mean in practice? How does one "benefit" pollinators in their community? There are a lot of great ways to do this, especially when it comes to native plants, but finding good, digestible information can be overwhelming. Thankfully organizations like Pollinator Partnership make learning how to help pollinators much easier. Join me and Bee Friendly Gardening Coordinator Sara Wittenberg as we discuss all the great resources available for those of you looking to be more friendly to pollinators.
