“It's an amazing concept and project. A teacher in our group may have some students, or know of past ones, who were interested in her garden program and who might love to be a part of something like this.”

We'd love to feature your project on the FriendsofHoneybees.NET site ... as part of our Life Supports Life (Braided Worlds) and Thank a Bee (k) initiatives, which are getting started. Getting a mix of young people, native plants enthusiasts/nurseries/authors/eco-designers, etc. in public settings like the one in Waltham, is perfect and integrates the stories of how we can all take steps to re-weave respect for Nature's balanced habitats back into our lives and communities.
Thanks! N'ann
