Children and their families learned all about bees, their importance to our environment, and the lessons we can learn from them at Budding Gardeners: Busy Bees on August 13.
This program featured Mika Hardison from The Herban Bee with a presentation about honey bees and their hives, and a chance for children to ask questions and share what they know. There were then three activities:
- Crafting DIY beeswax candles
- Creating honey slime
- Planting a flowering penta in a biodegradable pot to create a bee-friendly environment in the children’s yards
After the activities, children and their families enjoyed snacks in the Ballroom, played games on the Garden Club lawn, and explored our campus gardens.
