At Woolovers we believe in shopping products made from natural fibres to prevent the unnecessary use of acrylic and polyester in clothing and home accessories. The use of single-use plastics in home accessories and acrylic and polyester in clothing contributes to microplastics that can contaminate beehives and be harmful to our bees.
Bees do the vital job of pollinating around three quarters of our food crops and we couldn’t get by without them. So what can you do to help? You can plant bee friend plants and wildflowers, place a bee hotel in your garden to help out visiting bees, and shop reusable home accessories like cloth food wraps and natural fibre clothing to help prevent microplastics invading their natural environment.
