We are so thankful for all of the donations that have come in thus far for our Pollinator Habitat Creation and Habitat Restoration project! With this support, we have transformed the hillside from a mess of invasive species to a more manageable pollinator habitat with beautiful wingstem, goldenrod, asters, motherwort, and more flowers for the honeybee and the other 4000 species of native pollinators. We were also able to establish our first "bee island" on this hillside, giving a beautifully protected gazebo in which we can house our beautiful Sun Hive. We are so grateful, and really could not have done this without your help.
As we go into Winter, it is clear that we have to shift our focus on other infrastructure at the Honeybee Sanctuary, so we will be deactivating this project on the website for now, and focusing on supporting our educational programming with a new building, as well as housing a much-needed Sanctuary Caretaker at the Sanctuary itself with the construction of a new cottage. Please see our other project postings to help support us in this regard!
We plan to reactivate and continue the pollinator habitat and hillside restoration projects this coming Spring, so stay tuned.
Many thanks and warm regards.
