Healthy Home for the Bees

I have various insect hotels already but after learning that it is best to have replaceable 'chambers/cells' for the bees to reduce diseases, I have found it tricky to find one. That was until finding beevive one which you could build yourself and then the tubes can be replaced each year if they did not hatch. I have lots of mason bees, so I am eagerly awaiting them to find this new nest site. It would make a super fun gift as you can build it - which my partner enjoyed doing for me.

Letter from the founder - August 2024

We have launched our first (hopefully monthly) ‘Letter from the Founder’ blog post. I talk about a string of bad luck, from water gushing from various ceilings in my life to a break-in, and also reflect on the incredible work we have done to win two awards earlier this year. I look ahead to what’s coming up in August, projects we are working on with our clients, and some thoughts about the rest of the year. And I give an insight into my brain, why I am who I am and why I’m so thankful for all the opportunities, passion and excitement that running Sprouts has given me as a founder and as a woman.
