The event will feature displays and hands-on workshops to show visitors how to create a native bee hotel, identify different types of pollinators and provide information on how to build a pollinator garden. Face painting will also be offered.
Bee Palooza is event is open to the public, and additional details are available on the event’s website or Facebook page. Maps to the MSU campus and to the MSU Horticulture Garden, on the west side of Bogue Street, south of Wilson Road, will help you find the gardens and nearby parking.
