The "Garden Variety Native Bees of North America" perpetual calendar is both
a guide to some of our more common native bees and a gardening calendar that
never goes out of date.  Included is a two-page introduction to native bees
which contains tips on how to create habitat for them in your own backyard.
Use the journal portion of this calendar to keep month to month and even
year to year comparative garden notes.  It's a great way to record your
observations of the bloom times and other characteristics of the
bee-friendly plants you include in your garden, along with the numbers and
different types of bees that visit them. 

 

This 9 "X 12" calendar, which includes stunning photographs by Rollin
Coville and accompanying descriptions and recommended plant lists by Celeste
Ets-Hokin, is sure to inspire gardeners and growers everywhere to make our
landscape bee-utiful!

 

A portion of the proceeds from the sales of this calendar will support the
work of two leading pollinator conservation organizations:

.         The Great Sunflower Project, a pollinator monitoring and
conservation program led by Dr. Gretchen LeBuhn of San Francisco State
University; for more information visit  <http://www.greatsunflower.org/>

.        The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation, a nonprofit at
the forefront of protecting native bees and their habitat across the
