Come hear about the abundant benefits of native bee habitat gardening! Learn about the biology and ecology of bees and their important role in our ecosystems. See some of the most common bees found in urban areas and learn how gardeners can use California native plants to attract these valuable pollinators to their own gardens.

Chris Jadallah is a researcher at the UC Berkeley Urban Bee Lab. The Lab’s mission is to protect and restore native bees by furthering the understanding of the relationships between bees, flowers, and people. Chris works on several of the Lab’s research projects in urban and agricultural sites around the stateand also participates in outreach. He recently earned a B.S. in Conservation and Resource Studies from UC Berkeley and has a background in ecology and environmental education. Also look for the Lab’s book, California Bees & Blooms: A Guide for Gardeners and Naturalists, available at your local library.
