Carrotmob for bees! October 6 at Garden Fever

8/17/2013

0 Comments

 
What's a Carrotmob and how can it help save bees? A Carrotmob is about voting with your dollars. It's a fun, easy way to support a business that's doing the right thing.  Garden Fever is a neighborhood garden shop that's doing the right thing by taking all neonicotinoid pesticides off their shelves. Neonics are highly
toxic to bees because they are absorbed by the plant and they accumulate in the pollen and nectar. When bees come to collect the pollen or nectar, they are poisoned. This is what happened in Wilsonville recently. Despite the dangers, some nurseries continue to sell these toxic products because they are profitable.

Garden Fever has agreed to stop selling neonics, so let's show our appreciation. Come by the store on Sunday, October 6 and shop for plants, seeds, garden tools, books and more. This is also a great
opportunity to do your holiday shopping.
WHERE: Garden Fever Nursery - 3433 NE 24th, Portland, OR

WHEN: noon – 4pm, Sunday, October 6, 2013

WHY: Thank them for being a bee-friendly nursery (and refusing to sell neonics)

WHAT TO WEAR: Yellow and black, or dress like a bee

WHO IS INVITED: You, your family, friends and neighbors
