Bee Hotel Workshop & Wildlife Gardening

Are you curious about how we maintain our garden and attract various pollinators? Bee Hotels are just one part of a bigger picture.

Join us on Saturday June 13 from 2-4pm for a Bee Hotel Workshop hosted by yours truly, Ellis Nature Centre. With all materials provided, participants will build and personalize their own functional, yet beautiful Bee Hotel, designed to support native pollinators. Guests will leave with this workshop with a decorative and purposeful habitat feature that can be placed in their backyard or garden to create safe nesting habitat for solitary bees. This workshop is a great opportunity to learn practical ways to support pollinators while still enjoying their outdoor spaces.

This workshop is $30 per person, limited to 20 participants, and requires pre-registration. Any remaining spots will be open to the public for drop-in.
