We're buzzing with purpose. 🐝 To better understand Pennsylvania's wild bee population, twenty of our Master Gardeners have partnered with Margarita López-Uribe, associate professor of entomology in the Penn State College of Agricultural Sciences, for long-term bee monitoring research. The lab does not monitor honey bees, but rather wild bees, with #Pennsylvania hosting more than 400 species. López-Uribe pointed to the significant gaps in knowledge of bee biodiversity across the state as an inspiration for the project.
