Beevive on BBC Escape to the Country

Beevive on BBC Escape to the Country

Escape to the Devon countryside with us on BBC One.

You can imagine the BUZZ of excitement at Beevive HQ when earlier this year the Escape to the Country team got in touch to say that they would love to spotlight Beevive for their upcoming series!

So one drizzly July morning, BBC Radio 2 presenter and Chelsea Flower Show host Nicki Chapman and the crew came to visit the studio to see where we hand-assemble our products, and to ask us about our very important bee-saving mission. Once the sun came out, we BUZZED out of the studio and headed to the wild meadows of our local country park in the search of some bees. We were lucky enough to be able to find and identify some bees and even spotted a ladybird, a cricket and a 'bee-fly' too! (You can read more about bee-flies and other insects that mimic bees in our blog here).

Thank you to the Escape to the Country crew for helping us to spread the word about how important pollinators are to the health of our planet!

To watch the full episode, head over to BBC One on Monday 14th November at 3pm, or catch up on BBC iPlayer (episode 23) for 30 days after airing.
