@Matt_Glan very cool. I wanted to add some to a student native wildflower garden at school, but concerns about potential allergies got in the way.
We have unused land at the bottom of our warehouse and lorry park. We planted a wildflower garden and the worked with local bee keepers to get the hives. Although we are in industrial parks there is a lot of wild land nearby so we thought it would be great for the bees. The bees are doing great and we are going to expand the number of hives. Our keepers also provide hives for schools and have an extensive risk assessment that negates some risks
