Do you find yourself wondering about that bee on your flowers or that butterfly on your walk? Or you love pollinators and want to invite them to your yard, fields, or forests? Come learn about these creatures, why they are important, and ways to create and maintain pollinator friendly spaces.
Angie Orpet works for the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation. She helps orchards and small fruit producers create pollinator habitat to enhance their production while making homes for invertebrates. She lives in Wenatchee, but serves the PNW.
We will have seeds or plants for participants to take home after the event. Please pre-register to receive yours.
Come and learn:
Basic insect ID between bee, fly, wasp, butterfly, moth, beetle
Pollinator importance
How to make habitat, plants that are native to the area, and pesticide use
Citizen science opportunities to monitor bumblebees, fireflies, monarchs
Beneficial insects that come along with habitat.
