The honey bee is easily recognized as an important pollinator. However,
North America is home to more than 4,000 species of native bees.

During this event, participants will attend an indoor training session that
introduces native bees of New Jersey, the ecosystem services they provide,
and methods of conservation. Participants will also gain hands-on
experience identifying bees visiting flowering plants during a tour of Duke
Farm's restored meadows.
