Episode Synopsis

In this week's episode, Ethan was on the news twice in one week to talk about horticulture topics, Nick helped to stop a garden center fire, and the two then get into debunking some of the common thoughts/fears society has towards bees. Ethan explains exactly why honey bees are pretty unmotivated to sting you, and then they discuss everything from petting bees on flowers to the impacts of pesticide use on pollinator populations.
