🌿✨ Growing something wonderful! ✨🌿

The Hillside Foundation is proud to support the Davis Instructional Garden at Humankind! Most recently, we were delighted to provide a grant to help make the garden’s beautiful new fencing possible. 💚

And right now… the garden is at its peak! 🌸🌻🌱 It’s bursting with color, life, and inspiration—and absolutely worth a visit.

We love seeing community support take root and watching this special garden grow! 🌿

🐝 February Meeting Recap: Let the Bees Be! 🐝 While we are taking a short break for the summer, we thought it would be fun to buzz back and recap some spring meetings!! One of our favorite presentations was given by our very own HGC member and beekeeper Alaya!! A few favorite takeaways:
🐝 Worker bees care for their sisters and work together to keep the hive healthy.
🌼 Bees constantly monitor their environment and adapt to changing conditions.
🍯 Honey bees build and repair their hives using propolis, nature’s own sealant.
🌾 While honey gets much of the attention, pollination supports countless crops and contributes billions of dollars to agriculture each year. 🌼 Bees can see UV.
👑 Queens are made—not born—through a diet of royal jelly.
🐝 Swarming bees are typically more gentle than many people realize. Thank you again, Alaya, for reminding us just how amazing these tiny pollinators are!
