Washington Native Bee Society Meeting Jan. 27, 2022

Please join the Washington Native Bee Society on Thursday January 27th at 7:30 pm (join early for 'meeting bonus', see below) to learn about the Washington State Pollinator Health Task Force.

Katie Buckley, the Washington Pollinator Health Task Force Coordinator, will be presenting on Native Pollinator Protection in Washington under the Washington State Legislature Bill 5552. The bill acknowledges the importance of pollinators and was responsible for creating a pollinator health program within the Washington State Department of Agriculture. A task force was created that has given recommendations to the Legislature, adding pollinators and pollinator habitat to the list of things state land managing agencies must consider in their land acquisition and management, as well as authorizes municipalities to create community gardens and urban agricultural zones.

Meeting Bonus: starting in January 2022, we will be opening the WaNBS zoom meetings at 7pm with slideshows of bee photos and participating in informal discussions prior to our official start time of 7:30pm. It’ll be an opportunity to talk casually, “geek-out” about bees, share our favorite images, and help each other to identify some of the mystery bees that we may have come across in our field excursions.
