GREEN FAIR: BEE PROACTIVE
April 18, 2017
Coming in all shapes and sizes and populating all but the most extreme corners of the globe, bees play a crucial role in agriculture everywhere and represent an irreplaceable link in food production.
From apples and berries to nuts and cucumbers, bees help produce more than 30 percent of the world’s food. In fact, according to research from Michigan State University, bees are responsible for one out of every three bites of food we eat.
In honor of today’s campus Green Fair, Bon Appetit at Oracle will be bringing awareness to the diminishing bee population with our local honey partners, Lalier Garden and Stang Apiaries. Our booth will have FREE honey-lemonade samples, FREE wild flower seeds, and a live hive to showcase the unique habitat of these important pollinators.
