NH Is Blooming! Project: The 2020 Honey Bee Nutrition project is a citizen science project where anyone can enter information about any plant they see blooming and or pollens they see at their hives. The site went live April 1. We need everyone and anyone (children too!) who wants to be a citizen scientist to please participate! We will be building a database for anyone to use to determine when to expect plants to bloom, what should be blooming now, etc. This will be an ongoing project as the more observations we have the better the information we will have in the database for people to use. We have several garden clubs in NH as well as caretakers of state and city gardens participating. We have school children participating. Won’t you please help? People can enter their observations online or download a spreadsheet and mail it to the address on the website. The website is https://www.nh-is-blooming.com. For more information see our NH is blooming resource.
