SUMMARY:Native Bees: Species & Superpowers
DESCRIPTION:Saturday May 30th\, 2026 | 10am\nChoose-Your-Price: ($5 -$30)\nNorth America has over 4\,000 species of native bees\, and most of them are far better pollinators than the honeybee you’ve been trying to attract. Our native bees are the most efficient and effective pollinators\, especially for the native plants they have pollinated for hundreds of thousands of years. Brannen Basham and Jill Jacobs of Spriggly’s Beescaping are coming to Winding Stair Gardens to introduce you to the bees your garden actually needs\, and show you how to roll out the welcome mat for them. \nWhat You’ll Cover: \n\nWhich Native Bees are Actually Out There: Enjoy an introduction to the native bee species common to Western North Carolina\, exploring their appearance\, habitat\, behaviors\, and specialities.\nWhat They Need to Stick Around: The nesting conditions\, plant choices\, and small habitat decisions that turn a regular garden into a place bees come back to season after season\nPlants That Do the Real Work: Which flowering species attract the most diverse pollinator activity\, and how to plant a space that provides blooms throughout the growing season\nGetting Started Without Overcomplicating: Realistic\, low-cost steps you can take this season to see results\, whether you have a half-acre or a back porch with some containers\n\nBring your gardening problems and pictures- Brannen & Jill love to answer your questions! \nAbout Spriggly’s Beescaping: Brannen Basham and Jill Jacobs built Spriggly’s Beescaping right here in Western North Carolina with one clear focus: connecting people with nature and showing them how to support local ecosystems in their own outdoor spaces. Their business focuses on nature education and habitat restoration\, offering online courses\, books\, consultations\, landscape design and much more.
