[Pollinator] Bumble Bee Workshop

[Jonathan Koch]

Greetings all!

The 2012 Bumble Bee Workshop hosted by the USDA-Agricultural Research
Service Pollinating Insect Research Unit and Utah State University
Cooperative Education will explore the possibilities for using wild bumble
bees as pollinators.  The topics covered will include bumble bee
conservation, identifying western bumble bee species, and maximizing the
use of a commercial colony.  The workshop will have something for everyone,
from growers who need to augment pollination services to their crops, to
the citizen scientist who wants to raise their own bumble bees in their
backyard.

Join us to celebrate these pollinators during National Pollinator Week for
a day of bumble bees on June 20, 2012 in Logan, Utah.  An agenda of the
day's activities is now available.Please see attached .pdf file for more
information. To register, direct your attention to the following link:
