Pollinator Palaces: Mason Bee Houses Built by Kids

Course Overview

Become an architect for insects! Come learn about pollinators and their importance to ecosystems. Using this new knowledge, students will use design and use woodworking skills to build a beautiful mason bee house to take home and put up in the yard. Mason bees are one of nature’s most gentle pollinators and are highly unlikely to sting, making them great neighbors for observation.
