Join our workshop, where Stanley Park Ecology Society educator Julia Taylor will lead participants through the incredible diversity of native bees found in our region and break down common misconceptions. You'll learn about their unique life cycles, how to tell between bees, wasps, and flies, practice some bumblebee ID, and understand their crucial roles in our ecosystems that have evolved over millions of years -- with a chance to get up-close and personal with some bee specimens! Whether you'd like to support native species, give your garden a boost, or simply dive into the tiny but mighty world of these fascinating insects, join us for engaging presentations and hands-on learning to "Discover the Buzz"!</p><p style="margin:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline"><br /></p><p style="margin:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline">Plus:</p><ul><li>Take a look at bee specimens through a microscope!</li><li><p style="margin:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline">Each participant will walk away with garden seeds to support pollinators!</p></li><li><p style="margin:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline">Take part in "Adopt a Pollinator" with SPES, and receive a corresponding certificate and magnet</p></li></ul><p style="margin:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline;font-style:normal;font-weight:400;text-align:start;max-width:100%"><br /></p><p style="margin:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline;text-align:center">PROGRAM DETAILS</p><p style="margin:0px;padding:0px;vertical-align:baseline"><strong>Accessibility notes:</strong> This workshop will take place while seated in a community room space, possibly in closer groups.
