Bee Beautiful with Seeds 4 Bees

Save our Bees

To most of us bees are simply friendly visitors to our gardens, often seen buzzing around the flowers in spring and summer. However bees are vital as pollinators for both our food and for the plant life that make up the habitat for all of our wildlife.

Bees face many threats, they are declining on a massive scale – from loss of habitat and modern farming methods through to changing use of toxic pesticides. The loss of wild flower meadows and woodlands only exacerbates these threats, taking away the bees usual food source and, as a consequence, our supply of energy rich and medicinally important honey.

How can you help?

Firstly, by planting seeds for bees and filling your garden with bee-friendly wild flowers.
Secondly, by providing a bee and insect shelter – for both their nesting and hibernation needs.
Above all, if we can each do just one small thing for our bees, we can help make a huge difference to our natural world!

Collaboration

I have a big love for flowers since they are my daily tools. The wild flowers that I incorporate into my ceramics are picked from hedgerows on walks, and are preserved into clay, capturing their natural beauty forever.

When I was approached by Seeds 4 Bees and asked if I would be interested in a collaboration, I jumped at the chance as their ethos is right up my street. Being a part of their eco-friendly initiative to help bee conservation and to support causes improving our natural world is something close to my heart. One of my daughter’s first words was “bee”, which just adds to my love for them!

My ‘Bee Beautiful’ ceramic trinket dishes with real flowers impressed into the surface, can be found in one of the new gift boxes at seeds4bees, along with some other goodies which make great gifts.

Seeds4bees have a few different gift boxes to choose from, as well as wild flower seeds and other items on their website.

A contribution from the profits of each item sold will go to the NHS and their chosen wildlife causes.
