Description
Building up a better buzz on bees. In This Podcast: Walking by Lloyds of London with his wife Ashley, Lloyd Hardrick was intrigued by the beehives in the windows of the famous bank that shared his name. Curiosity led to research and research led to the career path that Lloyd and Ashley ventured on—raising bees. Making an impact on their community is the primary goal for Lloyd as he works to educate people on bees and their importance in our lives. As Lloyd says, “We all depend on bees. It’s everybody’s business to want to save the bees.” Don’t miss an episode! Click here to sign up for podcast updatesor visit www.urbanfarm.org/podcast Lloyd served in the U.S. Army for 10 years.
