We love what we do! We just want to inspire more and more people to connect with plants and save more bees! ❤️ Thank you @slynder.hogue! “I did a thing! Finally got a bee house for my mason bees. I hope they come! Trying to give them a safe place to live and have all the flowers they want to pollinate. My garden is completely pesticide free and I want to give the bees a safe place to live. I’m so excited I could scream! Bees are endangered. Without them we lose the ability to pollinate naturally. They help keep our world green. ☘️ Thanks @beesmartgarden for the inspiration and info” #BeeSmartGarden #Love #Bee #BeeKeeper #Gardentherapy #Green #Bees #BusyBee #Permaculture #Horticulture #flowers #plants #masonbees #bees ❤️

It’s all go at the ‘bee hotel’ in our garden the males are flat out trying to mate with the females, it only takes a second and the deed is done Save Our Bees Male blue Mason Bee - Osmia caerulescens. .

See those holes plugged with mud? Those will be our 3rd generation of mason bees come next spring! Last spring I ordered mason bees online, released them in our garden and they went on to pollinate, then lay eggs of their own which matured this year. Those mason bees are now beginning to lay eggs which will emerge next spring to pollinate to continue the cycle. Why mason bees? They are solitary bees, super pollinators if you will...one mason bee can pollinate what 100 honey bees will do. They don’t make honey, but they also don’t sting and are generally docile. The first article I wrote for @motherearthnewsmag included mason bees and other beneficial insects if you’d like to know more.

Osmia lignaria after a rainstorm, probably deciding if it's finished enough to get back to work, that or whether or not I'm there to eat her.

Happy Earth Day! Aside from raising honeybees, we added 2 Mason bee houses to our farm. The cocoons are on their way and the bee houses will be occupied soon! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Mason bees are native North American bees. They dont make honey, but are much more efficient in pollinating flowers than honeybees. They were originally 100% responsible for pollination before honeybees arrived. They travel only a few hundred feet from their homes, so they'll be pollinating our garden around the house rather than the farm's field plants. Unlike honeybees, mason bees are non-social creatures that nest in holes rather than in a hive with a queen. They are new for us, so we'll be learning all about them as we go!

I did a thing! Finally got a bee house for my mason bees. I hope they come! Trying to give them a safe place to live and have all the flowers they want to pollinate. My garden is completely pesticide free and I want to give the bees a safe place to live. I’m so excited I could scream! Bees are endangered. Without them we lose the ability to pollinate naturally. They help keep our world green. ☘️ thanks @beesmartgarden for the inspiration and info! #BeeKeeper #Gardentherapy #Green #Bees #BusyBee #Permaculture #Horticulture #flowers #plants #masonbees #bees

Osmia species male that is not Osmia lignaria. Was washing plastic containers and reach for a rag and there he was, hanging out. I suspect I may have sprayed him a little. #osmia . . . . . #beechbees #beegarden #nativebeegarden #pollinatorgarden #pollinatorfriendly #pnw #oregon #oregoncoast #farmingwithnativebees #gardeningwithnativebees #organicgardening #nativebees #nativebee #bee #bees #pollinator #pollinators #gardeningforpollinators #garden #gardening #masonbees #masonbee
