Junior Naturalists at Minnewaska: The Buzz about Bees
Come to Minnewaska State Park Preserve to learn about the importance of bees of all shapes and sizes. Our pollinator friends are responsible for more than just helping pretty flowers reproduce. Between keeping our ecosystems healthy, to ensuring that the world’s food supply is maintained, our planet is home to some truly busy bees! In this program, we will play a game about pollination, try some tasty, local honey, and construct bee houses that you can bring home with you.
Meet at the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center. Pre-registration is required by calling the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center at 845-255-0752.
