Support your bee population this time of year. They will search out water throughout the day.
Here are 2 that we have on our property. Remember, they can't swim. Give them a landing and something like rocks to cling onto if the water gets low.
You can see a mosquito fish swim up to say hi on the left of the planter in the tank.

Then there's the tarantula hawk wasp.....
However they are docile.

Someone donated these to our "city farm" homestead headquarters

Only 14 hour's, not bad.
There is some rust under the blades but they work great. We don't have clipper oil but do have WD-40.

Watermelon is a great treat, a natural way to hydrate and a favorite here on the "city farm" homestead headquarters this time of year.
Sir Vincent and Valentina sharing this sweet treat. Our brown laying hen, Sky loves it too.
As part of our mission, nothing goes to waste. Even the outer skins will go into the vermacompost.

Is ready for your sharers.
Please remember to be prepared when visiting.
Have extra water, a bag incase the plants get blown over and don't make it. We are in monsoon season where the wind and heat can be a challenge. There is a blog on the website of some fun items that can be left in a car if you happen to stop by a location.

The host of the Bee Kind Garden Stand in Mesa, Arizona U.S.A.(map link on website), goes above and beyond for the community. She added some hot season veggie starts and other fun stuff.
Host's are not responsible for filling the locations as that is not sustainable and the summers are slower. Always check the #Global map before heading out . We have a fun small list of gardening items on the website blog.
