This young lady totally wowed the gardeners on a morning when she stopped by to share this project she created for school. She prepared her presentation for her 7th grade project, titled "More Than Honey", using information and resources from the Mill's Nature Library. The presentation is all about bees both native bees and honey bees.

There are now honey bees at the Mill. We’re hosting three hives. Have you seen the WHY BEES MATTER poster in the Mill’s kiosk? They matter to us because 85% of plants exist because of bees! One-third of all the food we eat depends on pollinators. More than 100 types of crops are pollinated by bees in the United States.
The Bee Hotel was donated by the Chester County Beekeepers. We look forward to learning about native bees as they’ll be using the hotel in 2023. |
