BEE BUZZ

Although squash is pollinated by honeybees, the squash bee is a squash-pollinating powerhouse that visits only plants in the cucurbit family. Full pollination takes six to eight pollinator visits.

FUN FOR KIDS

Count and record the number of flowers on individual squash plants. Do some plants have more flowers than others?
