SUMMARY:Native pollinator garden tour
DESCRIPTION:Timothy Barker Plotkin ’26 shares his senior project at College of the Atlantic Beech Hill Farm. \nThere are more than 200 species of native bees here in Hancock County\, some so highly specialized that they pollinate primarily from one type of flower. For his senior project\, Barker Plotkin has spent his time learning about each one of these bees and how they fit into the ecosystem. This research supported him in writing a native bee field guide for local farmers and establishing a pollinator garden at Beech Hill Farm. Participants will get the chance to explore the management practices implemented at Beech Hill to support local pollinators\, take home a field guide to the native bees of Hancock County with watercolor illustrations by Barker Plotkin\, and build nesting habitat for our native insects. \nSpace will be limited to around 12-15 participants due to a finite number of field guides\, nesting habitat materials\, and the desire to keep the workshop smaller since we will be walking and talking around the farm. \nRegistration required. Vans will leave from the Whale Skull.
