Information

Plants have been using colorful flowers and nectar to seduce pollinators for millions of years. Even though we are beginning to understand that one in every three bites we take is dependent on a pollinator of some kind, conventional landscaping and agriculture often have invisible “Keep Out” signs where pollinators are concerned. Join Phyllis Stiles, founder of Bee City USA, to learn why and how Bee City USA affiliates are changing the way they landscape to welcome at-risk pollinators with the goal of reversing their global declines.

Light snacks and beer provided by Ingles Markets and Wicked Weed Brewing. This event is free to the public. Doors open at 5:30; talk starts at 6 PM.
