The province of P.E.I., and every resident here, has the opportunity to follow the leadership of Cornwall and Stratford and not cut our lawns this summer. Beekeepers are telling us that these bees need dandelions and all flowers for pollination.

Bees have been put at risk because of many kinds of pollution.

Each and every city, town, village and community can make this decision individually, or the provincial government could make this decision for all of P.E.I.

Our food chain relies on bees, and bees need our help, now, please.

Bernadette Mulligan,
Kinkora
