I have absolutely loved getting the chance to go out and talk to experts about their work.

About five years ago I was hunting around the internet for something gardening-related to potentially write an article on and ran across a local nonprofit called the Urban Pollination Project. They were doing a citizen science project to find out if there were enough native bees in Seattle to fully pollinate people's edible gardens. Since they were interested in only native bees they needed a way to exclude honey bees (which came over from Europe with the early colonists) and so they chose to look at tomatoes because HONEY BEES CAN'T POLLINATE TOMATOES. I was totally flabbergasted that I hadn't known that last bit and set out to learn more about all the other bees and fell in love.
