What a great resource from Kelley's for beekeepers young and old. Even for those just interested in honey bees.

Excited to see the number of followers on Twitter grow. Now if we can get some of you to like the Facebook page that would be awesome!

Hi,

Thanks again for all your organizing and transporting.

The second graders have a new recess game. I think it's called bee hive. There was a huge group pretending to be the different types of bees in a hive. It kept them busy for an entire recess.

How awesome that the kids took what I taught them and made their own game out it! - Alex

Four more classrooms, 2 - 1st & 2 - 2nd grades. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 317 students in about a week. Fun, but tiring.

Four more classrooms tomorrow, 3 - 2nd grades and 1 - Kindergarten. Then a little reminder that Sunday I will be at Green Festival Chicago talking about honey bees!

This is awesome. Friend of Peace Bees, Moisés Asís of BEES FOR LIFE - World Apitherapy Network/Red Mundial de Apiterapia shared this resource. Legitimate medical research on using honey for wound care. We all know it works, but mainstream medicine is finally coming along.

Busy day; 2 - 2nd grade, 2 - 3rd grade & 3 - 4th grade classrooms! Talked to about 163 elementary students today. Working on pictures.
