Here are some other ideas to get you started:

  • Send someone a handwritten note to let them know you’re thinking about them.
  • Make a batch of Honey Oatmeal Drops and bring them to a neighbor.
  • Plant a bee-friendly garden. Check with an organization like Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation to find which plants may work best in your area.
