At Doylestown Central Park in the native garden demonstration, you can find one of my hand crafted and painted pollinator boxes. This box is to help educate our community on the diversity and importance of bees through art. Most bees are solitary and do not live in a large colony, some collect pollen with dense hairs on their abdomen, others on their hind legs, some even in their stomach while a small percentage do not collect pollen at all, some are small, others large, some look like little emerald gems, they are all different colors but they are all needed to promote a healthy ecosystem. This box will provide habitat for cavity nesting solitary bees and wasps (wasps help pollinate, are beneficial garden predators and just like bees, they are diverse with many being solitary and nonagressive). What is something fascinating that you have learned about bees or wasps?
