News: Honeybees need our help...learn more at The Honeybee Project

Honeybees are in a crisis. During the past twenty years, populations have declined worldwide with U.S. populations declining by approximately fifty percent. Imported and pesticide-resistant pests, shrinking habitat, and diseases have devastated the honeybee despite the best efforts of beekeepers. Farmers that have traditionally relied on both wild and domestic honeybees to pollinate orchards and fields are now dependent on the managed hives of beekeepers to successfully pollinate their crops.

One way or another, the plight of the honeybee hits us both in our everyday lives and in our pocketbooks. The    need is immediate for education on the honeybee. The Honeybee Project

The Honeybee Project is a children’s educational project designed to raise awareness and engage children in the world they live in.
