April 21, 2021, via Zoom Everyone knows that honeybees are an important part of our ecosystem, but in the last few years new research has given us a window into the influence of climate change on bees. Beekeeper Erik Messner explores these climate change issues and also briefly discuss what non-beekeeping folks can do to help honeybees and other local pollinator species. The speaker: Erik Messner is a professional engineer on the weekdays, but, on the weekends, he removes his pocket protector and glasses to become the lead-beekeeper for Messner Bee Farm! The Messners have been keeping bees for about 10 years in Kansas City and love sharing the importance of bees and educating the community on bee-friendly practices.
