Did you know that Colorado has 946 documented bee species? That’s more than can be found in the whole eastern United States! Come find out how you can support this important part of our ecosystem and learn about structures you can build to encourage native bees to take up residence wherever you live. Join Tom and Kristin Knapp of Knapp’s Bees, LLC for an informative, educational, and hands-on presentation about Colorado native pollinators and how YOU can help them flourish. Then build and take home a small house for solitary bees using provided recycled materials that most people have around the house.
