Information about other pollinators will be in future “Bee Notes” too. Sign up for “Bee Notes” or at: http://extension.oregonstate.edu/linn/linn-county-master-gardener-association Look for the link in the middle of the page to subscribe to “Bee Notes”. All “Bee Notes” will come from “Linn County OSU Extension” (via Mail Chimp). You might want to watch your “junk” or “promotional” mail too.
