Guest guest Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Around 25% of our honey bees have died in the Colony Collapse Disorder of recent years. You can search the group archives for more on it if you're reading this on the Natural Perfumery group, or search the web.This die off has profound ecologial implications, and can drastically affect our crops that need pollination. SF State University is promoting the Great Sunflower Project, and need your help. They want you to plant sunflowers and report back on the honey bees that visit the blooms. They'll send you a packet of sunflower seeds if you promise to plant them and report back. They have given out 3,500 kits and have 6,500 left. Visithttp://greatsunflower.org to sign up.
