Description

Everyone knows about honeybees, but did you know New York State has over 400 species of native bees? Join a park ranger to learn all about New York's native bees and what we can do to help them. This program will involve a woodworking demonstration where you'll learn how to make a bee hotel - a place where certain bees will make their nest. Please note: participants will not be making their own project during this program.
