Last week, Summer Dow and McKalia Hageman, both Animal Science students, along with the help of Logan County Bee Inspector, Nate Davis, and Teen Eco-Summit Advisor, Becky Nellis from the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, installed two bee hives on campus. The bee hives were placed in the pollinator garden which the Animal Science and Outdoor Careers students established on campus. The hives were made possible through grants from the Logan County Farm Bureau and Battelle Research Institute.
