Event details
Help us celebrate World Bee Day by joining Helen, an engaging speaker from Friends With Honey. She will teach you about the important role of pollinators and how you can help them survive.
Your backyard, no matter how big or small, is very important for helping native pollinators in your area.
In this workshop, Helen will talk about how to create habitat in your garden for species such as:
- native bees
- European honey bees
- butterflies
- moths
- wasps
- flies
- small mammals, such as bats and birds who have an essential role in pollination.
Helen will also talk about identifying pollinators, the best plants to use, pesticide use and how to create supplementary habitat, such as bee hotels.
You will make your own native bee hotel – just bring an empty and clean 400g tin can from home (one per person). You will also go into the draw to win a copy of The Contented Bee book.
