Event Details
The 4-H Honey Bee Challenge introduces youth to the critical role that honey bees play in food productions as approximately one in every three bites we eat is the result of these pollinators at work. Working in teams, youth assemble model bees using bristle bot kits and construct foraging route for their model bees to follow. Teams are evaluated on the efficiency of their materials used in designing foraging routes, the amount of pollen their bees collect, and the time their bees spend foraging. This is for ages 6 and up.
