Hello everyone!

My name is Rebecca Walker and I am the owner of URBAN POLLINATORS, LLC. We have recently updated this web site and will be adding new resources and information so please check back often. You can always reach out to me through the contact page with any questions or inquiries as well.

A little bit about me: I have been gardening my whole life in some fashion or another, from a strawberry patch as a toddler, to house plants as a college student. More recently my time in the Horticultural Proficiency Program through the Lane County Extension Center has allowed me to take my love of plants and gardening to a whole new level.

Although I moved to Eugene in 1999, I only began cultivating my urban sanctuary in 2004 when we purchased our first house. My little homestead gave respite to several cats, a dog, many chickens, some ducks, and a small apiary for 18 years. Within this little urban garden, I had also been keeping mason bees for the last several years and came to find myself fascinated by them. Now, I am on to a new house with a new yard, and a new plan to increase my pollinator friendly plants, provide necessary habitat to several types of native bee species, and continue to help educate those around me about the wonderful features and benefits of the Blue Orchard Mason Bee.

I look forward to maintaining and expanding my existing relationships and creating new ones as we share our exciting and passionate curiosity about Mason Bees together. Thank you for supporting our local native pollinators!
