Pet of the Week
Kingsville is now a Bee City
The Town of Kingsville is now official designated as a Bee City. Bee City Canada announced that designation earlier this week after Kingsville had made an application to them. Bee City Canada is a program of Pollinator Partnership Canada and to date, 63 municipalities across Canada have been
designated as Bee Cities. “Bee City is a movement, basically, that helps municipalities make homes for bees,” said director Vicki Wojcik. “We all live in cities or towns and those are our homes and we take care of our homes a certain way because we like to have nice homes that make us happy. And so essentially, Bee
City is exactly the same thing.” According to Wojcik, Bee Cities have three obligations to meet: initiating habitat actions, providing education and celebrating Pollinator Week June 20-26. Kingsville recently installed a pollinator garden at Lakeside Park.
