About this Event
Join Us for the Meadow Work Bee!
What better way to celebrate the Equinox than creating habitat for wild bees? Guided by a certified Pollinator Steward, participants will:
- learn about native bees and their life cycles
- implement best practices in meadow maintenance
- build new habitat for stem- and ground-nesting bees
Through experiential learning, participants will come away with an understanding of how to integrate native bees’ complex life cycles into garden/ landscape maintenance. With some knowledge, we can skilfully enhance conditions for wild bees and other pollinators to flourish!
All are welcome. Whether you're a seasoned bee lover, or just looking to lend a hand, this Meadow Work Bee will be fun, educational and rewarding in equal measure. It’s a great way to learn, to meet ‘beeple’ and enjoy fresh air, while making a real difference in the (bee) community. Bring your energy and let's make the meadow shine!
Your instructor, Christine Thuring, co-created the meadow opposite Point Grey Park in Feb. 2024 with the City of Vancouver and continues to steward it with Green Streets. Learn about it here. She has done several trainings with Pollinator Partnership: Meadow Maker (2023) and Certified Pollinator Steward (2025). Christine co-founded the Native Bee Society of BC.
