“I sleuth out answers to questions about bees, how they behave, why they are declining, and how that might affect plants. It's an incredibly creative, challenging, rewarding, and fun process!” @NMStruttmann’s #WhyISci
Hope to see you all this Monday, February 10th, 7PM @urbanchestnut's Grove location for a night of moss and bees!
"The simple "green fuzz" we see on tree stumps and in sidewalk cracks contains a hidden world of beauty and diversity that is waiting to be revealed, we just need to take some time to look a little closer." —Adam Rembert, restorationist + bryologist (e.g. moss expert)
#WhyISci
Join us at our next #SciDistilledSTL to hear Adam talk about what makes tiny plants like mosses, hornworts, and liverworts so special:
