Help Save UK Bee's

We here at The Organic Collective have recently read that in the last 2yrs the UK has lost a third of its bee colonies. This is shocking as the benefits of bees are well known in both farming and conservation. The Soil Association are currently running a petition to push the UK government to ban neonicotinoids which is a pesticide already banned in several other EU countries and is believed to be linked to the decline in the Honeybee. To help and read more about neonicotinoids visit www.soilassociation.org and for more info on other ways you can help the many species of bee check out www.saveourbees.org.uk and www.helpsavebees.co.uk
