Celebrate World Bee Day by joining Dr. Susannah Lerman, Research Ecologist with the U.S. Forest Service, to learn how a “lazy lawnmower” approach to maintaining your yard can help restore habitat for bees and other pollinators. Dr. Lerman will review the natural history of bees in lawn-dominated yards and share new research on how mowing your lawn less frequently can improve pollinator habitat, increase bee diversity, and reduce carbon emissions. She’ll also discuss the implications of lazy lawn mowing for ecosystem “disservices,” such as tick-borne disease.
