Monday, June 21, 2021 Community Gardening around the Village: The Buzz about Bees

ABOUT THE EVENT

Phoenixville Public Library presents the next virtual presentation in its “Community Gardening around the Village” series, “The Buzz about Bees”, on Monday, June 21 at 7:00 PM. Learn all about honey bees with local beekeeper Melissa Jaarsma. Get a look inside a hive during a walkthrough of a honey bee hive inspection. Melissa will also tell you what pollinator-friendly plants to include in your gardens to help not just honey bees but our native pollinators as well. Prepare all of your bee and pollinator questions for live Q&A time at the end. Melissa Jaarsma has been a beekeeper since 2015 and is going into her 7th season of beekeeping in Phoenixville. Her hobby grew into a business in 2019 selling local, raw honey at area farmers markets.

This event is free and open to the public and will be held online via Zoom. Registration is required at https://ccls.libcal.com/calendar/Phoenixville/bees or by calling 610-933-3013 x132. Email mpinto@ccls.org for more information.
