SUMMARY:Build Your Own Bee Hotel
DESCRIPTION:You probably know there are bees. You may not know there are over 500 kinds of them right here in western NC. John Kotab does. \nA bee hotel sounds like a charming yard decoration\, and it is! It’s also one of the most practical things you can put in a garden if you care about what grows in it. John is here to show you how to build one from scratch\, and to explain exactly why it matters. \nThis hands-on workshop covers two distinct construction methods so you leave with a finished bee hotel\, not just notes. You will get into the lifecycle of native bees\, how they interact with hollow and pithy-stemmed perennials\, and which plants they depend on to survive and reproduce. \nWhat You’ll Cover: \nNative Bee Diversity: Who is actually living in your garden right now\, and what kind of habitat they are searching for\nConstruction Methods: Two approaches to building a bee hotel\, built together in class\, so you go home with a completed structure and the blueprints to build more\nLifecycle and Behavior: How native bees reproduce\, raise young\, and rely on specific plant structures at each stage of life\nPlant Relationships: The connection between native bees and the hollow or pithy-stemmed perennials that make up their nesting world\nOngoing Care: How to clean and maintain your hotel so it stays a place bees want to return to\, season after season\nYou will leave with a finished bee hotel\, a seed packet carrying thousands of seeds to grow a bee-friendly garden at home\, a list of workshop-cited resources on native bee biology\, and a clear picture of how one small structure can shift the health of your whole yard. \nThis one is a good fit for gardeners\, conservationists\, and anyone who has noticed fewer pollinators than there used to be and wants to do something about it.
