  • Pollinator Week Annual Festival

    We were pleased to join the annual festival in downtown Decatur, organized and hosted by Bee City USA – Decatur and thrilled to have a booth in the center of the space with the Peter and Angie/Beecatur. Thank you, Beecatur, for all you do to support, educate, and advocate!

    We sold a record number of Bee-autiful Buckets, even sending one to San Antonio, TX, as well as stickers, repellents, and incense, which we had not offered before.

    This bucket was particularly well chosen, quite a match for a thistle tatoo.

    I was particularly glad to meet Laura @nuture.native.nature, who posted a video of me explaining the bucket method and had a terrific approach to using the stickers for a DIY Bucket (currently only available at festivals).

    Here are some stills of her videos:

  • Happy Pollinator Week!

    It is Pollinator Week, and we’re busy getting ready for the annual festival organized by Peter Helfrich and Beecatur. My social media is blowing up with all sorts of information and advocacy about how we can all support pollinators and celebrate pollinators, including eliminated pesticides and herbicides from our landscapes, making our work with B Buckets feel especially critical. I will try to post some highlights as I am reading posts among festival preparations. For now, here is a preview of the Bee-autiful Buckets in progress.  

  • Thanks, Beecatur!

    Thank you, Peter/Beecatur, for including us in your newsletter today. We are working hard to get the site finished and supplies gathered and instructions posted (if you want to purchase them at Intown Ace Hardware on Scott Blvd), aiming for everything to be fully available by the end of the day. Our inclusion in your newsletter is additional motivation! As always, I appreciate your support and expertise, Peter!
