More info | Honey Bees are suffering huge loses Worldwide! We need to help our Solitary Garden Bees to pollinate our garden & allotment fruit, vegetables & flowers. They are very docile & do not normally sting. They do not live in hives! Their habitat was mainly rotten logs & old lime mortar walls which have been reduced as we achieve our neat & tidy gardens.. now they are desperate for our help to give them nesting sites. This talk & demonstration will show you how to make nesting boxes from recycled materials and the plants that will encourage these cute bees to your garden. Just add a few nesting boxes & a few bee-friendly flowers to increase their numbers, before we lose them! You can still have a neat garden & help the bees! Presented by Eastleigh Transition Network (http://www.etnet.org.uk/), as part of the O2 Think Big Project (http://www.o2thinkbig.co.u For further information & to book your FREE place: email folkmania@hotmail.com or info@etnet.org.uk |
Some years ago, inspired by TV Turnoff Week, and by the number of people overheard saying "Southampton's really boring", Jani and Bik began "The Hubbub" to raise awareness of all the cool things people can do in and around the city. The Art House hears about a vast amount of stuff going on, so this blog is our way to resurrect The Hubbub, so we can share what is fab out there with everyone! If you hear anything interesting, obscure, arty or groovy happening, let us know!
