The Ellsworth Garden Club will host an illustrated presentation on “Understanding Native Bees and Their Importance as Pollinators: Enhancing Their Habitat in Our Maine Gardens” on Monday, Oct 19, at 7 pm at the Moore Community Center
University of Maine Extension ornamental horticulture specialist Lois Berg Stack will help people identify native species of bees and the types of habitat that they need to thrive and survive. In addition, she will report on data gathered as part of a pollinator project over the 2015 growing season involving assessment of introduced and native plants as pollen/nectar sources for native bees and honeybees.
Stack’s presentation is free and open to the public.
