Honeybees in peril -

I wrote about their scarcity in an early post here, which was about luring Mason bees to your yards. You'll have to scroll through the old posts.

This article has such serious implications for us here in the US and all over the world. Without bees, we don't eat. We won't be able to grow crops or livestock, because they will not have food.
No fruit. No vegetables. No livestock. It is a grave situation. There's a link to a petition somewhere on this site. I urge you please to sign and send it in.
