The Bee Lady – OUR WORLD OF POLLINATORS

There is a “Buzz” all around the planet. There is much concern about our pollinators, but many do not know the role that pollinators play.
Many children today live only in an “inside” world. They do not have opportunity to go outside into nature. Children love to hear about nature. They love to get involved with the “outside” world.
Our future farmers and beekeepers are our children!

Gladys Hutson is “The Bee Lady” – programs that teach children and adults about “Our World of Pollinators”. These programs teach how gardening and pollinators work together in producing our foods, seeds and future plant life. That without both of these working together, many species of plants and life form will not survive.
