With the bee population dropping – even halving in some countries, it\u2019s vital we take care to maintain bee populations, pollination and honey production.<\/p>\n

In support of Don\u2019t Step on a Bee Day the With Love Forum at Key have been hard at work!\u00a0Our team have been making space to plant wild flowers, lavender and bee houses to help home solitary bees.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Did you know a tablespoon of honey is the life\u2019s work of around 35 bees!<\/strong><\/p>\n

To raise awareness in the company our mid-month pick me up followed the theme \u2013 Salted Caramel Honeycomb the perfect treat for a Monday!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>What can you do to help?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Plant Bee-Friendly Flowers & Shrubs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Plant these in your garden to attract bees.<\/p>\n

Support Local & Organic Farmers<\/strong><\/p>\n

Insecticides are cited as the main cause of bee decline. Buying local and organic benefits the bees, local farmers, the environment & your health!<\/p>\n

Buy or Build a Bee Hotel<\/strong><\/p>\n

Did you know bees need somewhere to rest when they venture out on their pollen mission.<\/p>\n

Set up a Bee Refreshment Station<\/strong><\/p>\n

After all that work, bees can easily wear themselves out \u2013 it\u2019s common to see a lone bee lying on the ground.\u00a0Add water to a bowl filled with rocks or marbles so the bees can climb in and out whilst grabbing a refreshment.<\/p>\n

We’re looking forward to welcoming our first Bee resident in their new home!<\/p>\n
