Showing respect for the Environment, source with integrity, return of the pollinator - the bumblebee
Welcome
Share our environmental success story in reversing the 30 year decline of nature's pollinator, the UK Bumblebee.
Backed by the independent science of “The Buzz Project”, sponsored by Syngenta and Sainsbury’s and with the aid of 100’s of expertly trained UK farmers, we together, are actively sowing and managing clover rich field corners and boundaries to re-establish the missing vital pollen and nectar food source of our bumblebees.
Our objective: to sow 1000 hectares of Operation Bumblebee mixture across the UK landscape which will make a significant and sustainable difference to the well-being of the bumblebee which is in serious decline.
Syngenta are training farmers in the new skills required to establish these habitats lost from the UK landscape over the last 30 years, helping to halt the decline of nature's pollinator using technology transfer from scientist to farmer - “THE WHITE COAT TO WELLY BOOT”.
