Learn & Connect
In early March we held a webinar, The Ardsley Pollinator Pathway: How we can save our pollinators, as part of our Pollinator Pathway kick-off. The summary of the presentation can be accesses here and the webinar recording can be accessed here.
Every season has plenty to explore and get involved to build our pollinator-friendly community:
Bee the Buzz - support your neighbors in building nodes along Ardsley's pathway.
Become a Power Pollinator - raise awareness, connect with others and lobby for better legislation for our pollinators.
For Teachers and Group Leaders
Pollinator Partnership's learning center has a series of educational brochures to help groups learn about pollinators. The Bee Smart School Garden Kit is specifically designed for use by teachers in the classroom setting.
