Podcast appearances and mentions of bee hotel

ROTG is a Formula 1 talk-show podcast hosted by two blokes without a license In this one, we discuss Red Bull taking home the Constructors Championship, the tussle between George and Lewis and Alpha Tauri's decision to go with Tsunoda and Ricciardo for their 2024 driver lineup

We've all heard that bees are in trouble, but you may wonder why, and more importantly what you can do to support bees and other pollinators. In this episode of Granite State Gardening, UNH Extension's Emma Erler and Nate Bernitz share proven tips and solutions for supporting pollinators on your property. This conversation is very practical, and gets into the kind of detail and nuance gardeners are looking for to go beyond basic concepts. Emma and Nate also cover a wide range of topics, discussing bees and what differentiates them from other insects, and different types of bees including but not at all limited to honeybees. You'll definitely walk away from this episode with ideas you can put to practice.·         Featured Plant: Cosmos (Cosmos bipinnatus) Resources: ·         Pollinator Week·         Pollinator Plants for Northern New England Gardens·         Establishing a Wildflower Meadow from Seed·         Other UNH Extension resources for creating pollinator habitat·         Protecting Pollinators While Using Pesticides·         Bee Nest Box Guidelines·         Building a Bee Hotel·         Bees and their habitats in four New England states Connect with us at @askunhextension on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and subscribe to the monthly Granite State Gardening newsletter. Email us questions, suggestions and feedback at gsg.pod@unh.edu  Cover image by - Robert DurantTranscript by Otter.ai 

This episode about Marvin Reyes and sustainabilitySuch a fun conversation today with Marvin of Vincerola nurseries & preschools in Cologne, Germany. We were planning to interview some of the children but with 4 and 5 year olds whose native language isn't English, well, you'll have to listen to hear how that went. Keeping it real.Then I got to ask Marvin all about their sustainability projects in their Montessori school. We talked about building bee hotels, nature visits and how they are making children conscious of how much trash they make in a week.

I listen to the podcast regularly and read the Montessori Toddler while on maternity leave. My 2.5 year old son attends a lovely AMI Montessori School full time here in Canada, and my husband and I try our best to follow the Montessori method at home, although we were both raised in a very different way. His teachers report that our little guy is easy and affable at school, but at home he has lately started to push up on limits very strongly. Although I understand this is exactly what he should be doing, I often don't know what to do after I feel like I appropriately responded to his behavior and he persists in it.For an example: the first nice warm day of Spring on our commute home from school (I was walking and pulling him in his wagon as usual) we saw another family eating ice cream cones. He started asking for ice cream, repeating the request more and more urgently. I pulled the wagon off the side walk, crouched down to his level to look him in the eye. I calmly explained that I understood that he wanted ice cream, ice cream was delicious and I wished we could have some too. But today we were not going to have ice cream. I couldn't buy him ice cream today (this was true, I hadn't brought my wallet), which was hard, because I understood the he wanted some very much. Today was not the day to have ice cream. Today was that family's turn to eat ice cream and it would be our tun to have ice cream on a different day. Today we were going to the park!. I felt like we had connected and he understood, but as soon as we started walking again he resumed yelling and repeating his demand for ice cream. What to do in this instance? Ignoring him didn't feel very respectful, but I was at a loss how else to move on and ended up diverting him with the slide when we arrived at the playground.This is an example of something that is happening a lot. I feel like I am communicating that I understand his wishes, explain the limit, and validate his feelings towards the limit. But then when he continues to test that limit (which I understand) what is the best way to respond?" 

This week I get all hyped up about rewilding my backyard and some ways to add a bit more wild and increase the biodiversity of your patch of home in practical ideas and a bunch of links to things in the show notes.

There are over 19,000 different kinds of bees and 30% of them live in a tunnel or cavity. You can help these tunnel-nesting pollinators out by providing a place for them to call home. I'm not sure where the name came from, but kids these days are calling it a bee hotel.  Making a bee hotel is a fancy way of saying you're collecting hollow tubes, putting them somewhere and leaving them alone all Spring and Summer. A bee hotel won't get you honey or beeswax, but some of the common tunnel-nesting bees like leaf cutters and mason bees are great pollinators of a lot of plants including veggies, fruits and herbs.  In this episode I explain how to make a bee hotel, how to care for it and clean it out, and what to plant to attract some common tunnel-nesting bees. For those of you who love bees and want to have more in your neighborhood, but aren't able to keep honeybees, this is a great alternative. It's also a wonderful project to do with kids and help them learn more about bees. Check out our blog post about it at: https://www.beekeepingmadesimple.com/blog/make-solitary-bee-hotel Here you'll see a bunch of sample bee hotels, my personal bee hotel and links to learn more about bee hotels and tunnel-nesting bees.

Back Garden Biology takes a closer look at the insects in the garden including the solitary bee. Solitary bees don't live in colonies and don't have a worker caste. Instead, the females must do the hard work themselves and rear their own offspring. Mining bees often dig holes in lawns and excavate burrows in which to deposit balls of pollen on which their larvae will feed. Mason bees and leaf-cutter bees do much the same, but use holes in walls, or bee hotels, provided by friendly gardeners. But, there are plenty of other insects happy to take advantage of their activities - many of them carefully disguised.

More from Cerise: Cerise earned her Gold Award in Atlanta, GA after creating a "Bee Hotel" to address the lack of safe habitats for various species of native bees.  Bees native to Georgia need protection and shelter in order to do the important tasks they perform for our ecosystem. Cerise was successful in creating a safe place for pollinators by building and installing the bee hotel at the Chattahoochee Nature Preserve. Cerise has been an Girl Scout since the age of 9 and earned the three highest awards in Girl Scouting.  Cerise is Sophomore at Mississippi State University majoring in Wildlife Conservation and plans to be a Wildlife Veterinarian or Conservationist.   Join our Facebook Community at Hearts of Gold Podcast https://www.facebook.com/groups/HeartsOfGoldPodcast/ Instagram @sherylmrobinson Please subscribe to Hearts of Gold on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/sherylmrobinson or on your favorite podcast app. Support future Hearts of Gold episodes at https://www.patreon.com/heartsofgold Editing by https://www.offthewalter.com/  Walter’s YouTube channel is  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt0wFZRVaOpUd_nXc_8-4yQ

If I say "bee", you immediately picture the yellow and black stripes of a honey bee (or maybe think of that time you were stung in primary school). But here in Australia, native bees are quite a different species. They're vital to the diversity of our local ecosystem and can benefit your backyard in spades!Back in 2012, Tracy Lansdell started her journey into the world of native bees. And it's a passion that's grown far larger than she could've imagined. Take a listen to Tracy as she chats with Sab and Jamie about the importance of native bees and explains how you can attract them to your place with a bee hotel!

In this episode, my guest is Camilla Goddard, founder and owner of Capital Bee (http://www.capitalbee.co.uk), an urban beekeeping operation in London, England. Camilla keeps around 70 beehives for businesses and organisations around London, teaches beekeeping courses on the rooftop of a 4-star luxury hotel, and finds homes for vulnerable bumblebees and honeybees. We start with Camilla's journey getting started in beekeeping and go into the importance of bees for both the environment and humans and why they play a crucial role in our ecosystem. Although Camilla recognises the challenges bees are facing, she is hopeful they can adapt and flourish, despite urbanisation and climate change.
