 Hi, my name is Megan Ryan and we are here in Fort Wayne Indiana at the Southwest Conservation Club. I am part of the team for Southwest Honey Company and Southwest Honey Company exists to educate and help make our community aware of pollinators and their impact and we do that through our educational programs and opportunities in the community to partner with like-minded organizations that support our mission and what we're doing. I was born and raised in Fort Wayne Indiana. This is my home and this is my community. My neighborhood is less than a mile from where we're standing right now and to be able to be connected with nature and with the honeybees and our pollinators and share that with the people that live around me and in my community really means something to me and to our organization and to Southwest Honey Company and we've really taken that to heart. And today we had the opportunity to meet and thank some individuals from SAIR for their partnership that allowed us to grow and expand our education program and get out in the community and spread the good word about pollinators and how they impact our ecosystem and it was because of that partnership with SAIR that we were able to reach many, many more people in our community and really grow the educational program that we do with kids called Explore the Honeybee. We use the apiary here in the background as our educational apiary so we have a program called Adopt a Hive where families or individuals adopt a hive for a year and part of that adoption includes an experience at the hives. So these are the hives where we will bring guests out to experience bees in person. So these are the hives that allow us to get people up close and personal with bees. Now with our little kids and our programs we don't necessarily do that we use a sealed observation hive but these hives behind me here are educational hives that allow people in the community to have exposure to real live honeybees. Hives really do impact our life and our food and our agriculture and I think that they don't get enough recognition in general and so anything that we can do to help raise awareness really in the long run comes full circle and impacts our community where we live.
