Product name: Bee Brick & Bees Blocks
Designer/brand: Green&Blue
The Bee Brick is an innovative nesting site for solitary bees, that can either be installed freestanding in a garden, or in place of a standard brick in a building or wall, to increase the number of habitats for non-swarming solitary bees.
Green&Blue believe passionately that every new home built in the UK and Europe needs to provide a home for wildlife. With so many species of wildlife in decline, they believe we must rethink how we plan, build and manage the homes and gardens in both existing and new residential developments.
Green&Blue make their range of products in their Cotswold workshops, creating local employment and giving them full control over the process and materials. They utilise 75% waste material from the Cornish china clay industry within the concrete used to make their products.
