Hello Gail :
I am a long-time organic farmer /gardener from Boundary county. In past summers, I have performed Bumble Bee surveys for the PNW Bumble Atlas –sponsored by the Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation. Recently I received a big packet of printed resources from Xerces –the focus is on pollinators and gardeners –including plant lists for the Rocky Mountain region.
Today, I shared come of these with Jennifer Jensen -U of Idaho Bonner County Extension -for the sake of her upcoming Advanced Master Gardener’s Course –where she will be focusing on native plants.
I see that you are offering a BCGA course on pollinator gardens very soon. Would you be interested in the remainder of these beautiful and inspiring printed resources to pass out to your course participants ? Please let me know a.s.a.p. You can contact me via eMail –but the phone will much more handy for me –and if you are willing to give me a good mailing address –and I will send them along !
Hope you are well –and that you are enjoying the rising green.
