Presented by the Department of Entomology at Michigan State University, Bee Palooza is a free event for all ages. This year’s theme, "Bee the change,” focuses on supporting Michigan pollinators and plants.
Taking place Aug. 18 at the MSU Horticulture Gardens, Bee Palooza is an accessible way for everyone to learn about and contribute to pollinator conservation efforts.
The event aims to raise awareness about the challenges faced by pollinators and inspire action to protect these crucial contributors to biodiversity and agriculture.
Attendees will have the opportunity to explore exhibits showcasing the diversity of pollinators and their habitats, participate in workshops led by experts in bee conservation, and learn tips for creating pollinator-friendly gardens.
Other aspects of the event include helping attendees conquer their fears at the bee petting zoo, making seed balls packed with native Michigan wildflowers and trying pollinator-themed MSU ice cream. Throughout the event, visitors can visit displays and talk to MSU entomologists to answer pollinator-related questions.
