From June 17th to 23rd, Pollinator Week buzzes into action, raising awareness about the vital role these winged wonders play in our world. But that's not all! Cities across the nation are joining the Bee City USA movement, committing to creating sustainable habitats for our pollinating pals. Imagine vibrant gardens, buzzing with bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, all working their magic to ensure our fruits and veggies reach our plates. During Pollinator Week, the West Linn Parks & Recreation Department hosts educational booths at the Mary S. Young pollinator garden. Learn how to create a pollinator-friendly oasis in your backyard, discover the fascinating world of native bees, and maybe even try your hand at beekeeping!
