On April 27th, The Bee Conservancy and @theportauthority_ny_nj welcomed @girlscoutsnyc to Liberty Park at @_wtcofficial to celebrate our first Bee Sanctuary dedicated exclusively to fostering ground- and cavity-nesting bees! The Scouts participated in an imaginative performance of the reproductive lifecycle of a mason bee (with an original Scout-choreographed impromptu dance to boot) and helped us install two more native bee habitats in the park. As part of this Native Bee Housewarming Party, each Scout wrote encouraging messages to the bees on the cardboard nesting tubes—which will become home to mason, leafcutter, and small mason bees this year! For helping us celebrate, the Scouts added a special merit badge to their sashes.
