Description
Small changes can add up to big results. Habitat loss and fragmentation are considered to be the leading causes of the loss of bee diversity and populations. However, one need not look further than their own backyard (or balcony) to find a powerful remedy to the plight of the bees. It is not necessary to have acres of land, a degree in Entomology or a particularly green thumb to create spaces for native pollinators to thrive. All that is needed is the will to help, and connecting with the right resources.
Gardening for Bees is part of our Little Books on Bees Series.
This book will help you identify the bees visiting your garden, assess your green spaces, and create the ideal habitat to support pollinator health. This book contains gardening tips and recommended plant lists for the Southern Alberta region, however, the basic concepts can be applied throughout North America.
