Saturday, 21 June 2025, 3 – 4pm, Hollingdean Park Community Orchard & Forest Garden

Join Sheila a Growing Hollingdean volunteer, as she weaves tales of adventure and wonder while sharing the vital role bees play in our world and how we can help protect them.
This beautiful story was written by Dr. Yanet Sepúlveda, Research Fellow in Ecology and Evolution at the University of Sussex, and is designed to inspire young minds to care for our buzzing friends. As a special bonus, you will receive a FREE copy of the book plus a bee-friendly seed pack to grow their own pollinator haven!
