Intro to the Bumble Bee Brigade

Join Elizabeth Braatz, WI Department of Natural Resources Bumble Bee Coordinator, the following day on July 23rd and learn about the amazing bumble bees of Wisconsin, and how you can become involved through the participatory science program ‘Bumble Bee Brigade’.

We’ll cover basic bee biology, rare species to keep on the lookout for, how to identify the top species, and how you can become involved. Then, we’ll go outdoors to tour the Garden from a pollinator perspective and practice our new identification skills!

Participants should bring:
-Camera/camera phone
-A bagged lunch
-Comfortable clothes/footwear for 1.25 hours walking throughout the Garden

This class is not a full training to become a Bumble Brigade Ambassador.
