Beepot Mini
The Beepot mini is a compact size concrete planter and bee house, all in one. We like to call it our Air BnBee!
The Beepot mini bee house makes a lovely gift for any lover of nature who also loves their garden and loves simple, stylish design. It looks great, whilst doing good for the bees too, win and win!
90% of bee species in the UK are solitary bees, bees who don't produce honey, don't have a queen, and don't live in hives, but who are really important pollinators. By putting the Beepot mini in your garden, allotment or urban space you are helping to create habitat for these brilliant bees so that they can continue with the vital pollination work they do.
Solitary bees are fascinating to watch and safe to encourage around children and pets as they are non-aggressive, they have no honey or queen to protect meaning they have nothing to defend.
If you want some tips on bee-friendly planting for your garden then you can visit our blog post on the subject here. If you want to know more about solitary bees then you can find out more here.

Sustainability at Green&Blue
Excuse the pun, but sustainability isn't just a buzz word for us at Green&Blue, it's embedded in the business decisions we make and every thing we do.
These are just some of the areas of business where we focus attention to be the most sustainable we can be;
Product -
The Green&Blue range is entirely British made - meaning visible supply chains and low product miles. We have worked with the same suppliers since the business was started back in 2005.
The Green&Blue range is designed to last for many years and we do our best to support our customers with repairs or replacement parts where any issues do arise.
The concrete range is made within our own Cotswold workshops, creating local employment and giving us full control. We use 75% waste material from the Cornish china clay industry within our concrete and are constantly reviewing material developments and processes to ensure we are using the best material we can.
Workshop -
We look forward to updating you soon on how we make sure our offices and workshops are running as sustainably as possible.
Packaging -
The Shred project , which Wildcare acquired with the purchase of Green&Blue in 2023, enables us to remove virgin grade packaging materials from our dispatch process - and allows us to work with our local community to remove recycling and to extend the useful life of cardboard.
Our boxes are UK sourced and made from FSC certified cardboard.
Our wraps and printed literature are printed with a print supplier who work from a state of the art sustainable building, and who are a carbon balanced printer, winner of the 'UK environmental company of the year' at the PrintWeek Awards.
We don't rest on our laurels and that is our promise to you. Sustainability is a journey with no end, and as we learn, as we question and as we grow we will keep this commitment at the heart of everything we do.
If you have any questions, any ideas or any feedback then please get in touch with our team, we can do more together than we can apart.
