Portland Fruit Tree Project brings your lots of information about the benefits of bees and birds! Pollinators serve an important role in our local food web. More specifically, we need them in order for our fruit trees to produce bountiful fruit sets! In this hands-on workshop, you will gain a basic understanding of bee-keeping, learn about the life of bees, how to construct mason bee habitats, and which plants are favorable for attracting pollinators. Each participant will get to take home some pollinator-friendly plant seeds and some empty paper tubes to start their mason bee populatiion. Coffee, tea, and snacks will be provided at the workshop.
