I'm curious now!laurenh1 said:An early call for a NSD today.
My husband is going to collect some new bees 🐝 this afternoon which his mum has kindly said she would pay for.
Have a lovely day everyone x
How much does a bee cost?
Do you buy them individually, and if so, who counts them?
Is it like a rescue centre, where all the little bees have little cards with their back story and give you the adorable puppy-eyes to tug at your heart-strings?
Is there a sliding scale of quality like there is with fresh fruit or flowers- reduced to clear, budget, stores own label, Taste The Difference?
