The discussion on bees is all the buzz at the Unity Gardens Growing Summit. Thanks Peace Bees, Steve Lesniak, and Tim Ives (via Sara Stewart)

The following is from 1992. Apparently not enough people listened. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TQmz6Rbpnu0

Happy Earth Day everyone!!

If you are not headed for IUSB for the Growing Summit, why not?? Come say hi to Steve & Tim & talk honey bees.

Wow, what an awesome Ag Days weekend. So glad Alex was here to enjoy it. Friday was good, but Saturday was non-stop 10am to 4pm. Sunday was pretty steady as well. The best part was the awesome collaboration between Peace Bees and The Unity Gardens. We had the most popular station, so much so that we held up the entire flow. Already talked to Ag Team members and we are moving our booth[s] farther down the line. Made some great connections and we may be quite busy teaching a lot of newbees!!

Who is ready for Growing Summit next weekend? Not one, but now two honey bee sessions by Peace Bees!

When will this happen in your hometown? http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/bees-descend-waldorf-astoria-shack-penthouse-article-1.1061718?localLinksEnabled=false

We like the idea of more backyard beekeepers!

The Unity Gardens bees update: LaSalle Square bees should be making their way out there in the next week or two. We delivered fencing to the Southfield Lake garden the other day so that location will be seeing bees about the same time.

Controversy Deepens Over Pesticides and Bee Collapse http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2012/04/neonicotinoids-colony-collapse/

A growing body of scientific evidence points to pesticide exposure as a critical factor in colony collapse disorder.

This is a must watch clip. Rumor has it you might see Alex on this show some time in the future. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHaevg61yA4

Someone tell Jonelle I am fine! At least she isn't standing over me with the EPI pen!
