[Pollinator] OUT NOW: Wild Bee ID app and website by Center for Food Safety

[Maria Juur]

Hi All,

This week, Center for Food Safety launched the new Wild Bee ID app<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.wildbeeid.org_get-2Dthe-2Dapp&d=DwMFaQ&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=W0h3oxNqefV20lYilhN0cSBqvUlKgluIuz2zMdphYs6xVW--JmbwPGlNPolt5UmS&m=ZYfp1jVydG6f9bnMzL7PSteeGJ5e00XtACI9ZH5gfpw&s=2iUUU7Qv_rdYwTtQ5tSP16xyDSFAI_iySypf83AeudM&e=> and website<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.wildbeeid.org_&d=DwMFaQ&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=W0h3oxNqefV20lYilhN0cSBqvUlKgluIuz2zMdphYs6xVW--JmbwPGlNPolt5UmS&m=ZYfp1jVydG6f9bnMzL7PSteeGJ5e00XtACI9ZH5gfpw&s=c92SW6JTnJgMzN4psh2cuihV58eM8qQmyRXWDE-mHUs&e=> and we’d love it if you could help us get it out there. The Wild Bee ID app identifies North American wild bees with striking photographs, both the scientific and common names of the bee, where they’re typically found, what behaviors they exhibit, and which floral resources will best allow different bee genera to thrive. Available on both iPhone and Android, the app also features guides on how to start a wild bee garden, bee nesting habits, and bee anatomy.

We made Wild Bee ID with the hope that it will empower gardeners across the country to use the app to actively participate in the conservation of these vital pollinators. The more people that have access to Wild Bee ID, the better the future looks for bees. It’s not often that the average citizen can play such an important role in the conservation of a critical species.

Could you help us cross-promote the new app? Here’s a link to our press release<https://www.centerforfoodsafety.org/press-releases/5566/center-for-food-safety-launches-groundbreaking-app-to-save-pollinators-wild-bee-id> for more info and we have sample social media posts and graphics in this google drive that you can share: http://cfs.center/wbidlaunch<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__cfs.center_wbidlaunch&d=DwQFaQ&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=W0h3oxNqefV20lYilhN0cSBqvUlKgluIuz2zMdphYs6xVW--JmbwPGlNPolt5UmS&m=ZYfp1jVydG6f9bnMzL7PSteeGJ5e00XtACI9ZH5gfpw&s=7nf1MsO5ltt6THOA3LO6ne2-S9-355TgshPevN17XEQ&e=>

Bees pollinate so many of our favorite plants, food, and flowers. Let’s return the favor and pollinate the internet with the new Wild Bee ID app to help them survive. Please let me know if you have any questions about the app or would like more information.

Thank you,
Maria
