Preparing for International Pollinator Week with Krystle Hickman, Author, Artist, Native Bee Adventurer

The conservation of biodiversity writ large is directly tied to the conservation of native bees, crucial pollinators in our cultivated and wildland ecosystems across most regions of the world.
This week, we look forward to International Pollinator Week, which always falls in the third week of June, tied to the summer solstice.
We’re in conversation with Krystle Hickman, award-winning conservation photographer, author, artist, and National Geographic Explorer. Her passion is native bees wherever she finds them, starting in her home place of California.
Known online as BeeSip, Krystle’s newest book, including her extraordinary photography, is The ABCs of California’s Native Bees.  Listen in for so much more!
