Bee friendly

Blogged by Carol:

Ben, Lee and I finished off the week with a trip down to Buzzworks at Hitchin to hear more about their plans to build a bee-friendly garden and education centre. Because bees are so central to our nature-friendly farming system, we thought we were quite well informed about bees and the current crisis that they are experiencing - but then we met Robin the bee-keeper who kept us enthralled for over an hour teaching us all about bee behaviour (or should that be bee-haviour?!) and bee-keeping. Unfortunately Robin only had one spare suit so Ben & Lee can be seen watching rather nervously from a distance!
