'Save our Bees'

Reclaimed roof framework, second-use fabric, that a bee makes only 1/10th plastic bags, foam offcuts, wire, and willow. of a teaspoon of honey in its whole life?

UK bee populations are threatened by
loss of habitat - fewer hedgerows means fewer wildflowers and suitable places to nest
the use of pesticides
a changing climate
the onslaught of parasitic Varoa mites

How can we help save bees?
We can all help by planting bee-friendly flowers and plants, and buying local honey.

Pupils at All Saints (Marsh) C. of E. Primary School, in Newton Abbott worked with Lauren Ballard, Environmental Artist, as part of a Devon Arts in Schools Initiative to create worker bees and pollen.
