Its no secret that honey bees are in grave danger, and a world without them is a world with our nuts, fruits, seeds and vegetables. That is a
Nearly one-third of the world's crops are dependent on honeybees for pollination, Not to mention our little farm is part of that number. Over the last 10 years the precious pollinators have been dying at unprecedented rates in the U.S and over seas.
Why ?
Pesticides......Big surprise? I think not! But a lack of bees threatens farmers who depend on these nectar and pollen-eating animals for their pollination services. Yet they are killing the very thing they rely on!!!! .....Big surprise? NO! but that is a rant for another day.
Lets talk about what we can do about it...
We want to do our part at Justafew Acres to support the honey bee. We want to host a Honey Bee colony here on the farm, as well as hold demonstrations and hands on workshops to raise awareness. If everyone had a backyard hive just imagine the impact. Honey Bees make great house guests!(well yard guests)
