Hello, we're changing the world one #beehive at a time! #Bees, Biodiversity champions, Beehive management, education and award winning Honey. #GenerationBee
Mexico v South Africa kicks off the World Cup this week.
But before the first whistle: tacos, salsa, avocado, lime, corn, braai sides, herbs, spices…
Pollinators are already on the team sheet. 🐝⚽
Team Mexico, Team South Africa, or Team Snacks?
It’s hot. Bees are thirsty. 🐝☀️
Pop out a shallow bowl of water with stones, pebbles or corks so they can land safely.
Bees need water to drink, feed young bees and cool the hive.
Tiny hydration station. Big bee energy.
Not on the menu without pollinators:
🍓 berries
🍎 apples
🥑 avocado
🍅 tomatoes
🌶 peppers
🍯 honey
🍹 fruit juices garnishes
Bees and other pollinators support around 35% of global crop production.
A post-World Bee Day reminder. Happy bank holiday weekend 🐝
Happy #WorldBeeDay 🐝
Bees support biodiversity, food systems, green spaces and a whole lot more than honey on toast.
For May, Plan Bee is offering 2 hives for the price of 1 for businesses ready to make space for pollinators.
That’s double the buzz. Obviously.

The bees have landed at 100 Princes Street Hotel. 🐝
2 Rooftop hives, one iconic Edinburgh view, and a very careful installation by Brian, our barehanded beekeeper.
Big thanks to Alison for capturing the moment. 🎥
BOGOF on Hives for May!! 📤 buzz@planbeeltd.com
We’re delighted to announce our newest collaboration with 100 Princes Street in Edinburgh, part of the Red Carnation Hotels family.
Two rooftop hives. Princes Street Gardens below. Arthur’s Seat nearby.
What great views the bees have!
#PlanBeeLtd#Edinburgh#Pollinators
Lynn’s been doing important bee research in Edinburgh 🐝
AKA walking through Princes Street Gardens checking what’s flowering.
Before new hives go in, we look at forage, flowers, trees and green space.
Next week, all will bee revealed.

Sir David Attenborough turns 100 this May… so we’re celebrating the only way we know how. More bee!!. 🐝
For May only: buy one Plan Bee hive and get the second free.
One hive starts the story. Two hives double the buzz.

Earth Day 🌍
Big change starts small:
🐝 A hive
🌼 A wildflower patch
🌱 A decision to act
More places for pollinators = a healthier planet.
#EarthDay#BeesMatter#Biodiversity#planbeeltd
Acorn Court Care Home is sponsoring a hive 🐝💛
Backing biodiversity, supporting pollinators, making a difference beyond their walls.

That sting memory? Yeah… we’ve all got one.
But here’s the thing:
🐝 Honeybees don’t want to sting you.
Right now they’re out foraging... not picking fights!! Stay calm. Don’t swat. Give them space.
They’re busy rebuilding spring 🌼
#planbeeltd#savethebees
We’re still in spring - and a long way off harvesting honey 🐝
But now’s the time to understand what you’re actually buying.
Because honey isn’t just honey. It reflects flowers, place, and season.
Worth knowing before the jars appear 🍯
Bees don’t visit flowers at random… they choose them. 🐝
If your garden (or your office) isn’t designed for pollinators, they’ll simply move on.
Nature is selective. Maybe we should be too. 🌼
#planbeeltd#gardeningday#ESG#biodiversity
Did you know - here is a beekeeping rule you don’t hear often:
Move a hive:
Less than 3 feet → fine
More than 3 miles → fine
In between?
The bees return to the old address 🐝
