Now that bees are endangered, how can we help them?

Glad you asked! Here are some good ways that you can do any day now!

1. Buy local honey! Support local beekeepers, and get your honey as fresh and natural as you can hope for!

2. Plant bee friendly flowers! Bees will fly for miles and miles to find good flowers to collect pollen almost year round! Here’s some to look for when planting a garden!





3. Put out a bee bath! Bees need fresh clean water, so fill a shallow container with water and pebbles for them to land on so they can drink up or clean off! Be sure to fresh it up regularly so the bees feel content to return!

4. Avoid chemical pesticides or herbicides! These are a huge killer of bees, as well as a danger to pets and kids! Ladybugs, spiders, and mantises will keep pests in check, so invest in keeping those protected too! You can order ladybugs online and release them in your yard.

5. Research and educate! Learn more about bees, and be BEEager to spread on the knowledge.
