Embry: Bee-ware

by Chris Tachibana | Feb 2, 2018

-1Did you know that native bees pollinate tomatoes but honey bees can’t? Learning that fact inspired Paige Embry (@PaigeAEmbry), a long-time gardener, to write a book about the wonders of America’s native bee species. Pre-order Our Native Bees: North America’s Endangered Pollinators and the Fight to Save Them (Timber Press) from Paige’s website and meet her in person at her book readings and events.
