My widowed father is type 1 diabetic and just before lockdown at a visit to his doctors was told that as he has had the condition for over 50 years now was eligible for an Alan Nabarro medal which he was delighted to hear. Obviously due to the pandemic this has not as yet been forthcoming and he understands the situation but is disappointed. However his garden (And the great weather) which isn’t very big has kept him going. He’s had several birds nesting in his garden ie a robin and blackbird and it’s kept his interest. He also gets a lot of bees as he has a lot of flowering plants and one of these new bricks would be great Thanks
My partner loves our garden and looks after it while introducing our kids to gardening and growing our own food. Introducing more wildlife into the garden would be amazing, something he could teach the kids about.
My Step Dad is amazing, he treats me just like a daughter and is an amazing Grandad to my boys. He loves to get out in his garden, I’d love to treat him.
My Dad would love one of these. He loves his garden and has spent every day of lockdown staying at home and working on it (I can’t wait to be able to see it). He has a few bird feeders and a bird bath but nothing for bees so this would be a perfect addition to his garden haven and an ideal Father’s Day gift (I always struggle to find him something but this would be wonderful).
My garden loving dad would absolutely adore this. He loves our garden and spends so much time out there pottering and potting up plants. He is the kindest person I know and is always making sure any wildlife in the garden is safe. If there was a bug, he would make sure it was put on a leaf and tucked away so predators wouldn’t eat it!. My whole family love bees including myself and my sister. My sister studied bees for 4 years as part of her university degree so she would absolutely enjoy one of these bee bricks to bits. We have some wonderful flowers in our garden that attracts some bees but we do not have anywhere for them to nest at the moment. It would be the bee’s knees to watch the bees nest somewhere happily!
