Bees Action Network
The White Feather Foundation is helping the Bees Action Network in its Daisy Chain Campaign to establish safe havens for bees and other wildlife by the planting of organic seeds in and around London by allotment holders.
It is crucial that these seeds are organic or biodynamic as seeds bought from garden centres and nurseries are often tracked back to source and invariably that source can be genetically modified or soused with systemic chemicals.
BAN believes that bees are suffering, like humans, from agrichemical overload, modern monoculture farming, GM crops and even mobile phone masts which interfere with the bees homing ability. This results in a depressed bee immunity and malnutrition is the result. These findings are backed up by the U.N. Environmental Programme report into the global dangers facing honey bees.
