Colorado Public Radio is hosting 150,000 Bees. Through a partnership with Free Range Beehives, three hives have been installed on the roof of CPR Headquarters in Centennial, Colorado.
“When we found out this was an option for our building, we began exploring it right away,” said Stewart Vanderwilt, President/CEO of CPR. “It’s a great opportunity for us to improve our environmental stewardship by taking an unused space and providing a home for thousands of honeybees.”
“Free Range Beehives is thrilled to be working with CPR to support honeybees along the Front Range,” said Mike Rosol, CEO and co-founder of Free Range Beehives. “Our organizations share similar values, serving our communities with respect, inclusiveness and curiosity. We strive to educate professionals in their work setting so that they can make better individual choices at home on how to support the honeybee population.”
While the beehives at CPR are on the roof and inaccessible to employees, the staff is looking forward to the homemade honey at the end of the season.
