SPRING INTO ACTION WITH #pollinatio­nSA

-

… AND TEACH YOUR CHILDREN NOT TO FEAR BEES

Commit to creating a bee-friendly garden this summer. For inspiratio­n, download the free Candide gardening app and join in their #PolliNatio­nSa campaign. The point of it is to raise awareness around bees, their needs and what gardeners can do to create a favourable environmen­t for them. Bees are the VIPs – very important pollinator­s – of the plant world… About a third of our food crops depend on them for pollinatio­n. Share bee facts with your children, and model how to behave if a bee comes close. Bees are not out to get you! They are our friends.

Also, a bee-friendly garden is going to look amazing on your Insta page, as it bursts with colour. Remember to use the hashtag #PolliNatio­nSA.
