Pollinators Among Us
Vital to the health of our planet,
pollinators account for every third bite of
food we eat but face myriad threats and
stresses. In this informal talk and
question-and-answer session, beekeeper
and PBS reality series host Charlie Agar
will share about his work with honeybees,
their vital role in our ecosystem, and what
we can all do to help protect and
encourage pollinators.
About Charlie
Originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,
Charlie Agar has trod an unusual path to
beekeeping. He once worked the
fisheries of Alaska, ski-bummed in
Colorado, taught English in Japan,
crisscrossed South and Southeast Asia
as a travel guidebook writer, and worked
as a newspaper reporter before life
brought him to sunny New Braunfels,
Texas. Charlie removes and rehomes
nuisance bee colonies, coaches new
beekeepers, leases honey bees for
agricultural evaluation, and sells honey at
the local farmer's market. His work is the
subject of a reality TV series on PBS.
