DIY for Bees
We would love you to join us at this event!
EVENT FEATURES
Let's Build for Bees
Bee hotels are a great way to boost the population of local pollinators. They also provide a wonderful focal point to observe the activities of bees. Come and join us for our DIY event where we will build BEE HOTELS. While we will provide supplies, there are items we are asking participants to bring as well.
What participants should bring:
- scrap wood (untreated and not cedar)
that is cut to 6-7″ long sections (can be 2×4, 4×4, 4×6, etc.) - seasoned branch sections approximating the length and diameter above
- cordless drill and 5/16″ x 6″ length minimum. Other diameter drill bits (between 3/32″ and 3/8″) can be used for other bee species.
WANT TO VOLUNTEER?
We will need help with set up and take down. We will also need extra drills, with drill bits 3/32`` and 3/8``.
Please contact us to volunteer.
