Trees are Extraordinary

By Lonnie Morris,

Volunteer Coordinator of the DuPage Monarch Project

Trees have long been revered for the many benefits they give us. They also continue to surprise us as we learn more about them. Recent research has revealed the important contribution trees make to the survival of native bees in the early weeks of spring. The growing impact of the biodiversity crisis has set off an alarm calling for more attention and understanding of the complicated web of relationships sustaining life on earth.

 Kelsay Shaw, botanist and owner of The Possibility Place, a native plant nursery in Monee Illinois, will share his 25 years of experience growing native trees and observing the many bees and butterflies they support.
