Thanks to all who participated in WSCB’s Bee Fest Event! We had a great time identifying the Arboretum’s bee species and learning about pollinator conservation in Wisconsin and beyond. Check out the Wisconsin State Journal’s coverage of our event here.
If you missed BeeFest, you can still get involved with pollinator monitoring in Madison! We’ll be holding a field day on Saturday, July 11th (rain date: July 12th), from 3-5 pm at the Lakeshore Nature Preserve. Come by to learn more about bee identification and help us assess pollinator diversity at the LNP. Meet in the Picnic Point parking lot. There are many more opportunities to take part in this project; fill out the form on our project page if you are interested in learning more.
