[Cob] Learn cob building techniques while helping pollinators

[lkuder at umd.edu]

Volunteers needed!

 

As part of an outreach program to raise awareness about pollinators, UMD's
Entomology Dept. is sponsoring the building of a cob bee habitat wall. It
will provide nesting sites for many species of non-aggressive wild bees and
beneficial wasps.

 

Experienced folk would be greatly appreciated but this is also a great
learning opportunity for newbies, as experienced cobbler Ed Raduazo is
teaching volunteers how to mix and utilize quality cob and recycled
materials to create basic structures.  

 

Where: University of Maryland - College Park at the Arboretum Outreach
Center

 

When: 8/3 - 8/7 from 8 AM - 7 PM
