Wellness Wave Radio LLC with Phil George: Importance of Bees
The Importance of Bees
Join biochemist Phil George and dive into the world of bees with Alexandra Bartsch, the visionary founder of the Lexington Bee Company. Alexandra's journey began with a deep passion for nature and bees. Since 2008, she has been at the forefront of promoting bee conservation and raising awareness in the community.
Bees are the unsung heroes of our ecosystem, playing a crucial role in pollinating plants, which is essential for the production of fruits, vegetables, and nuts. Without bees, our food supply and biodiversity would be at risk.
Did you know that one-third of the food we eat relies on bee pollination? From apples and almonds to tomatoes and strawberries, bees are responsible for helping these plants reproduce and flourish. Their diligent work ensures that we have access to nutritious and delicious foods.
Beyond their impact on agriculture, bees also contribute to the health of our natural environments. By pollinating wildflowers and other native plants, they support the habitats of countless other species. Bees are a keystone species, meaning their presence is vital to maintaining the balance of ecosystems.
Despite their importance, bees face numerous threats, including habitat loss, pesticide exposure, and climate change. It's more important than ever to support efforts to protect and conserve these incredible creatures.
Alexandra and her team at the Lexington Bee Company are dedicated to promoting bee conservation and educating the community about their vital role. Through their collaboration with the Lexington High School Bee Club, they inspire young minds to become environmental stewards and advocates for bee conservation.
