Scott and I traveled up to Cleveland last Saturday to meet with members of the Michael R. White Community Garden. We discussed biological control of key garden pests by enhancing natural enemy populations. Above, we examined squash plants for pests and natural enemies with the gardeners. Scott discussed the diversity of bees which provide pollination to garden crops. During our tour of the garden we saw several bees including squash bees, carpenter bees, honey bees and sweat bees. The garden is nearly 2 acres in size and was packed with a large diversity of crop plants and flowers!
