Program Description

Event Details

Prescott Valley Public Library will be hosting, Pollinators in Our Garden, in partnership with Yavapai County Master Gardeners, on August 11th, 2022, from 5:30-6:45 pm. We are excited to welcome you to this class on incorporating Wild Bees in our garden and landscapes. There are over 1,100 native species of bees in Arizona, with lifestyles that are very different from honeybees. Understanding them can help us find ways to tweak our garden, landscaping, and farming practices to be more inclusive and supportive of our native bees. Learn how to identify them, provide suitable habitat and food sources, how mulching, tilling, winter cleanup, and other common garden practices can destroy native bee habitats, and what you can do to enhance the survival of these vital creatures.

Presenter: Laurin Pause

Laurin became a Master Gardener in 2019 and has served on the Speakers Bureau for over two years. She is an avid backyard gardener, applying what she learns in the course of teaching to all aspects of caring for her yard and that of her community. Her passion is to educate people on a wide variety of gardening topics, including the native wildlife that frequents our gardens.
