Meet the Mason Bees

Our orchard mason bees have been in their nesting tubes since last
spring. Watch these friendly and



fascinating bees as they emerge from the mud wall of their nest and
collect mud to build next year’s nest. See examples of bee nests made from
paper, mud and wax, and look for bees at work in our garden. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
