Bee-Safe Backyards: Protecting Pollinators and Identifying Pesticide Harm

Hosted by the Pollinator Stewardship Council (PSC)

Join us for a free, informative, online workshop on simple, effective strategies to protect pollinators in your own backyard and community! Learn how everyday gardening and home care choices can make a big impact on pollinator health. We’ll explore ways to reduce pesticide use, plant pollinator-friendly gardens, and talk with neighbors about creating safer environments for bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects.  

The workshop will also include an overview of how beekeepers can recognize signs of chronic pesticide exposure in their hives—such as erratic behavior, dwindling populations, or poor brood patterns—and how PSC’s free educational tools and resources can support beekeepers and their neighbors and communities in supporting and protecting hives.  Register here!
