Another gardener was asking me about the wasps in/near their plot. They thought it was yellow jackets. Highly unlikely.

Yellow jackets are aggressive assholes, and you won’t be able to casually garden around them.

It’s probably paper wasps — shy, docile pollinators.

But these two wasps look very much alike. Except for the color of the antennae; yellow jackets have black ones, and paper wasps have orange ones and their face has more yellow.
