Squash bee citizen science survey

We conducted a citizen science survey to study bees in cucurbit flowers. Our goal was to better understand cucurbit pollination, in particular we were interested in the role of squash bees and the impact of farm management practices on them. You can watch a webinar on what the survey was like (Password: MG2018). This project was part of a larger USDA Organic Research and Extension Initiative funded grant that ended in 2021.
