This will be an interactive workshop designed to translate environmental awareness into simple and achievable action, hosted by Penn's Beekeeping Club. Participants will learn:

• Why native plants are important for pollinator survival
• How urban spaces (even balconies and windowsills!) can become bee-friendly habitats
• The connection between biodiversity, food systems, and climate resilience
• Everyday practices to avoid that unintentionally harm pollinators

After a short educational session, attendees will:

• Receive a packet of locally appropriate native wildflower seeds
• Learn how to plant and maintain them successfully
• Take home a simple “Bee-Friendly Action Guide” with concrete steps they can implement immediately

We will also cover practical lifestyle shifts such as:

• Choosing native over ornamental landscaping
• Reducing or eliminating pesticide use
• Supporting local beekeepers and regenerative agriculture
• Planting in bloom cycles to ensure continuous forage
• Letting lawns “rewild” in small, intentional ways
