Introduction to Save The Bees Gift Set

Whether you’re an environmentally conscious gardener or someone who simply wants to make a difference, this thoughtful set will add charm to your garden while supporting the planet.
What Makes It Special
The Save The Bees Gift Set combines functionality with sustainability, offering a combination of food, water, and shelter to encourage bee populations. Included in this gift set are the Ceramic Bee Drinking Cups, the Mason Bee Bottle, and the Honeybee Garden Seed Kit. Each piece in this collection serves a purpose: hydrating, housing, and attracting bees to your garden. Handmade with care in various locations across the U.S., this set brings both beauty and purpose to any space.
Ceramic Bee Drinking Cups
Handmade in Texas, these delightful ceramic cups are designed to help keep bees hydrated during their busy foraging flights. Mimicking the shape of flowers, each cup holds about a teaspoon of water just the right amount for a thirsty bee. Place these cups in your garden, and watch as they attract our buzzing friends!
Mason Bee Bottle
The Mason Bee Bottle is a creative way to provide shelter for solitary bees. Made from a recycled beer bottle, this eco-friendly piece is filled with paper tubes, creating a perfect habitat for mason bees. Simply hang it outside, and you’ll be helping support these important pollinators as they find a cozy spot to rest.
Honeybee Garden Seed Kit
The Honeybee Garden Seed Kit contains six eco friendly seedling starter kits featuring flowers that bees love, including Siberian wallflower and gloriosa daisy.
