A 🐝 swarm almost scuttled the AZ Diamondbacks game this week ⚾ PSA: It’s swarm season New bee colonies are forming Hives are splitting and sending out new colonies They send a queen with a portion of the other bees It’s a critical (and risky) time for them 🐝 scouts typically find an appropriate new home 😍 watching scout bees “measure” a hive in advance A swarm of bees is typically fairly docile especially if enroute for awhile They may be exhausted or almost out of food They have to settle into a new home before food stores run out Sometimes delayed by weather enroute to a new home I’ve seen them exhausted, barely hanging on Less than half of wild swarms survive So, if you see a swarm hanging out in your area Call your local beekeeper asap 🐝 👏 You'll be a swarm hero 😎 And if you want your garden to produce more food ⬆ Consider placing a hive (aka furnished 🐝 🏠) in your back yard. #fooddoinggood #foodsystem #food   I’m Nicole Balderas.

🚨 Alert: The Great Zucchini Caper is On Attention, fellow gardeners and veggie lovers! 🥒 Today is the day we band together in a covert operation of epic proportions. It’s National Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor's Porch Day! Mission Details: 1. Harvest your surplus zucchinis (you know, the ones taking over your garden like they own the place). 2. Choose your target (a neighbor, friend, or even a random porch needing some green goodness). 3. Go undercover—Ninja-style stealth is encouraged, but a casual "Oh, just taking a walk" look works too. 4. Drop the zucchini and escape without being caught. Extra points if you get away with a giggle. May your zucchinis find new homes; your neighbors never know what hit them. 😎🥒 #ZucchiniCaper #GardenGuerilla #SneakSomeZucchiniDay #VeggieVigilante
