You’ve seen bees hop from flower to flower in summer, but have you ever thought where they find a drink?
Natural puddles dry up fast, and deep birdbaths can be bl00dy for small pollinators. A simple DIY “bee bar” gives them a safe landing pad—and it takes only minutes to prepare.
Why It Matters
Bees keep gardens and food crops alive. Pollination depends on healthy, hydrated bees. Shallow water sources are fading. Without them, bees waste energy searching—or drown in deep containers. One small dish can pay butterflies and ladybugs too.
Five-Step Setup
Select your dish – Any shallow, stable container works.
Add a layer of marbles or stones – Bright colors double as a pollinator beacon.
Pour water just below the marble tops – Bees perch safely; no swimming required.
Place near flowering plants – Morning sun on a table, stump, or raised ledge is perfect.
Maintain – Replenish with clean water; bring inside if a freeze is forecast.
