Episode 44: Stem Nesting Bees

An interview with Jenny Hopwood from the Xerces Society all about the life cycle of stem nesting bees and how we can create habitat for them. Often known for their work with pollinator habitat, the Xerces Society works with any invertebrate species. <br />Their mission: The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation is an international nonprofit organization that protects the natural world through the conservation of invertebrates and their habitats. As a science-based organization, we both conduct our own research and rely upon the most up-to-date information to guide our conservation work. Our key program areas are: pollinator conservation, endangered species conservation, and reducing pesticide use and impacts.<br />This is our first interview over Zoom so the audio does sound a little different at times but it was worth it to bring you this fantastic interview!Show Notes<br />Send us your questions at growingwithbloombox@gmail.com or leave us a voicemail.<br />Bloom Box: Growing Deeper: https://plantnebraska.org/podcast<br />Follow us @NEBloomBox on Facebook and Instagram<br />Follow us @growingwithbloombox on Pinterest<br />Learn more about Bloom Box: https://plantnebraska.org/bloom-box<br />Learn more about the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum: https://plantnebraska.org
