The Birds and the Bees and Beyond: The Inside Story of Pollination

Louisville Recreation & Senior Center 900 Via Appia Way, Louisville

Pollinators play essential roles in our food supply and the health of ecosystems. While many of us think of honeybees as the primary pollinators, much of the work is done by other surprising sources — including beetles, butterflies, moths, wind, and water. Discover the many pollination strategies of plants during this family-friendly slideshow and outdoor walk. We’ll explore how plants and animals work together to create a bountiful world — and what we can do to help them thrive. Registration for most programs begins on the 20th of the month before the event. Registration required.
