Started with a bundle from Crown Bees, and have really enjoyed watching them return to their tunnels with pollen and bits of leaves. That single house inspired me to convert a 300 square foot section of my lawn to locally-native flowering plants. I have a feeling this is a rolling conversion, and my property will look very different over the next few years.

Couldn’t be happier.

I have a bee hotel that I keep. I also live on 3 acres abuting a 250 acre preserve forest, so its normally full of all types of bees in my yard.

Super jealous. We’re within city limits, on .5 acres. Doing things on a muuuuuuch smaller scale!
