Get ready for Pollinator Week with local entomologist Bill Reynolds!

The program begins with a 30-minute indoor presentation where Bill will introduce common pollinators and share tips for identifying the insects you see in your garden. Learn about the many important pollinators in the garden including bees, wasps, beetles, butterflies, moths and even other less likely insects by accidental actions!

After the talk, participants will head outside for a one-hour collecting walk through the JCRA gardens. Using insect nets and other collection materials, Bill will guide the group in catching pollinators to observe up close before releasing them back into the garden.

Program Tip: Make sure to bring a water bottle, wear sunscreen and other sun protection and be ready to spend time outdoors!
