SUMMARY:No Mow May? No Mow April? Low Mow Spring?
DESCRIPTION:No Mow May has garnered a lot of media attention in the past few years. It’s catchy and succinct\, but is it the best fit for your community this spring — and will pausing mowing for a few weeks really save the bees? Join Xerces Society Outreach and Education Director Matthew Shepherd and Bee City USA Coordinator Laura Rost for a presentation on low mow and no mow options\, and how No Mow May can be an opening to talk to the public about what really needs doing to protect pollinators during this important time of the year. We’ll allow plenty of time for discussion\, so feel free to share your research and strategies. \nThis free Bee City USA webinar is hosted by Xerces Society and will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel on the Bee City USA playlist. Auto-generated Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar. \n  \nMatthew Shepherd\, Outreach and Education Director  \nMatthew has spent more than 35 years working with people from all walks of life to create better places for wildlife. His career began in England and took him to Kenya before his arrival in the United States. He has worked for the Xerces Society for two decades\, initially at the vanguard of the movement to protect pollinators\, but he shifted to communications\, and now community engagement and conservation in towns and cities. Matthew is author of numerous articles and other publications\, including Attracting Native Pollinators (Storey Publishing\, 2011) and Gardening for Butterflies (Timber Press\, 2016). \n  \nLaura Rost\, Bee City USA Coordinator  \n \nLaura supports communities working to reduce pesticide use and protect native pollinators. She has been with the Xerces Society since 2014\, first working in membership. Before Xerces\, she worked for a variety of environmental groups on issues ranging from instream water rights to green building. Laura holds a bachelor’s degree in environmental studies and has a certificate in nonprofit management from Southern Oregon University (the first Bee Campus affiliate!).
