Not many flowers are blooming early in the spring, which can make being a bee difficult. One group of Oregon State University Master Gardener apprentices in Lincoln County designed a garden to provide food for pollinators — and beautiful flowers for humans — throughout the spring, summer and fall.One of the requirements to earn an OSU Master Gardener badge in Lincoln County is to create an educational project in one of the demonstration gardens managed by the Master Gardener program. Rebecca Hooper, Diane Bryan, and Greg Kurtz, three apprentices in the 2017 Master Gardener program, chose to collaborate on one project: a year-round pollinator garden at the Oregon Coast Community College central county campus in South Beach.The goal of the pollin... https://newportnewstimes.com/article/year-round-habitat-for-pollinators
