Save The Bees Network Map By Aneela
If we achieve our goal of planting flowers in the school garden, then we will have contributed to saving the bees and helping the hospitality classes.

What does she do?

Mary Capobianco is the grandmother of Samantha Capobianco one of my group members in Ms Armstrongs IDC class. She has a massive garden in her backyard where she spends her time all year planting and taking care of her flowers, trees, fruits and vegetables.

Bees

What do they do?

Honey Bees collect pollen from plants and transfer it to other plants. By doing this it helps the plants grow. They take some of the pollen back to the colony with them and make honey for humans.

How do they impact the issue?

Bees impact the issue because it is all about them. They have an important influence on the production of food. Almost every bite we take is possible because of bee pollinators. When we plant flowers, fruits and vegetables we will be aiding the bees to give them more plants to pollinate with and attract the bees around one area so they can reproduce, creating more, taking them out of the endangered category.

Hospitality Classes

For our project we will not only be planting flowers, but a variety of fruits and vegetables too. The hospitality class will be able to use them for cooking. At time when my group is not available to keep the garden up to point, they will be there to water it, or cut off dry leaves to make room for more buds.
