This citizen science wild bee research project was created and is managed by the Gratton Lab in the UW-Madison Department of Entomology.
Funding for the WiBee project was provided by the University of Wisconsin-Madison Baldwin Wisconsin Idea Endowment and Gwenyn Hill Farm located in Waukesha, WI.
The app developer is Daniel Imhoff, Caracal LLC.
We’d like to send out a special thanks to all the apple growers who tested out early versions of the app and methods, including Atoms to Apples, Brightonwoods Orchard, Door Creek Orchard, Ela Orchard, Hafs Road Orchard, Lapacek’s Orchard, Munchkey Apples, Pleasant Springs Orchard, Ten Eyck Orchard, The Apple Hut, as well as the IPM Institute of North America.
