Project Status: Complete

Project Description 

We are working with campus Facilities (Theron Klos) and campus Risk (Morris Lever) to install a hive on the east side of the Student Services Building of the Haas campus. We are hoping that TGIF will help us upgrade to two hives. Additionally, we are asking for funds to build a pollinator garden to assure that the bees and other insects have access to food. Towards that, we would use these funds in part for tools to build and maintain the garden. Finally, our partner on this project, Bee Campus USA, would like to purchase educational books to use in their DeCal called “Save the Bees: Pollinator Conservation through Environmental Activism.”
