Penn State master gardeners will provide tours of a recently planted pollinator-friendly gardens at Ag Progress Days from 2 to 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 18 and from 6 to 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 19.
Penn State Master Gardeners team up with Penn State professor Dennis vanEngelsdorp and the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture to track local bee activity. Their goal: to make recommendations to gardeners about types of plants they should include in their gardens to make them pollinator-friendly. See them (and the bees!) in a slideshow at http://www.rps.psu.edu/pennsylvania/nativebees/ online.
