Make a Bee Hotel!

Do bees really stay in hotels? Well, sort of. Bee hotels are like a bird houses  for native, solitary bees and beneficial insects, allowing a safe haven  for them. Most native bees like the  mason bee don't live in large hives like honey bees. They reproduce in small spaces such as hollow reeds laying an egg and sealing it with mud so it can pupate. Later on when the baby bee hatches  it chews its way out and flys away!  Join Stephanie from Sassy Bee for an  evening in which you will learn about native pollinators and make your  own bee hotel to take home, hang up, and help our native bees and  insects.  All materials and instruction will be provided to create your own, unique, mason jar bee hotel. Two times to choose from, 12:00 p.m. or 2 p.m. Class runs about 1 1/2 hours.
