Come join LSPA and Ruth Droescher from the Xerces Society to learn about the plight of pollinators and how you can help. Bees are struggling due to habitat loss, pesticides, and disease, but the good news is that there are things we can do to make our landscape better for bees—and if we all do something, together we can have a big impact. Ruth Droescher, ambassador for the Xerces Society will introduce you to the diversity and natural history of America’s native bees, and present straightforward ways in which you can make your garden—or neighborhood or city—a pollinator haven. Learn how to evaluate your own landscape to determine how to make changes that will have the most beneficial impact and protect the local watershed.  Find out how to select flowers, provide nest sites, and why you should avoid pesticides. There are also community science projects to join in and other ways to engage your community.
