This map below shows the houses who have signed up to be part of the Bee Safe Neighborhood so far. I've only gone out to talk to people once now, so there aren't very many houses yet. The little bee stickers on my map indicate people who have already stopped using neonics in their yards!
If you're in this area (or anywhere in BCSVA) and you don't use neonics in your yard, please email me at pollinatorplates@gmail.com with your address, and your name (if you like), so I can add you to the map!
The purpose of this project isn't to market anything to you, or sell you anything. I am only collecting addresses of properties that are safe for bees to fill in my map. If you'd like to learn more about alternatives to pesticides and natural solutions to pest problems, I'd be happy to talk to you about those, but I don't sell them myself. The point is just to reduce the amount of chemical use.
Once we get enough people (75) signed up, I plan to have a neighborhood party at the end of Richmarr Place in the cul-de-sac. If I have your email addresses I can email you the party info, or I can drop off an invitation at your house.
This map below shows the (first) target area of about 75 houses.
