Be a part of the Bees’n’Beans initiative! We are seeking volunteers to monitor bumblebee populations in gardens and towns across the UK. With declining bee populations at risk of impacting our wildflowers and favorite fruits and veggies, your help is crucial. If you have space for dwarf broad beans, we’ll provide beans, pots, and instructions. Just dedicate some time and compost! Starting April 2014, join us in this important research with Sussex University. Learn more at our project website, ljbees.org.uk, or connect with us on Twitter @LJBees.

Bees‘nBeans We’re on the search for volunteers to take part in Bees ‘n Beans, to look at bumblebee populations in gardens and towns across the country. Many wildflowers, along with lots of our favourite garden fruit and veg, need pollination help from bees to succeed – but with bee populations in decline, this important process is under threat. Do you have enough space in your garden / allotment to grow a few dwarf broad bean plants, and take some easy measurements of your local pollinators at work, to see how well they’re doing? Starting in April 2014, we’ll send you beans, pots and instructions – all you need is a bit of time (and compost!). Interested? Come look at our project website: ljbees.org.uk or Twitter: @LJBees – and give us a buzz! Researching garden bees with Sussex University
