Watching an active Bee Hive will be a very meaningful immersive experience that a school or a community of children can experience at a local farm near them!

Kedar however is concerned about Native bees. These are solitary bees, that nest underground. They do not have a huge hive. The mother bee takes care of building the hive, gathering nectar and protecting its babies. They are lesser known bees and are at greater danger of becoming extinct because there is nobody working to protect their habitat- native plants.

Penguins have matchmakers too! We were at the Lehigh Valley Zoo today for a project that Kedar has been working on, for the penguins. We learned some really cool facts...

The blazing or Liatris Spicata is always helping the pollinators, who are vital to our ecosystem. They don't care whether we are polluting it's environment or that winter is coming. All they do is trust mother nature and be the beautiful plant it is.

To be honest, we humans think that lawns are beautiful and dandelions are ugly. But to every other creature on the planet, Dandelions are beautiful and lawns are ugly!

The pollinators like bees are dying because of the chemicals in our lawns.
