Bee Inspired Community Pollinator Habitat Kit
You will find the kit to be a hive buzzing with information and resources to help you get started on your pollinator habitat restoration project. You project can be as small as a few pots filled with native flowers or as big as a wildflower meadow with mason bee houses, hotels, and beyond - that part is up to you. All are important. All will make a difference.
More than anything, we want this kit to inspire its users to "leave no child inside", create lasting personal outdoor memories, get people working together, and maybe, amidst all the learning and laughter, help save the world!
