Description
Jen first got into keeping bees more than 10 years ago and quickly realised: that real ecology is more complex than we can ever imagine, that everything fits together in remarkable and wonderful ways and that just keeping honeybees in hives is far from the answer.  Now she talks to schools and young learners about the other 274 species of bee, about butterflies, flies and wasps, about their relationships with plants and about how we need to protect our environment in a sensitive, meaningful way.  She aims to dispel myths and misunderstandings and to help nurture a new generation of active naturalists.  As ever, check out our website for pictures: www.livingbeeing.com
