Small Bee Block
The Small Bee Block provides a safe nesting site for solitary bees. Made in our Cornish studio, the small bee block will look lovely in your garden, work perfectly built into a wall and, most importantly of all, will provide a safe nesting site for solitary bees for many years to come and is a great way to get kids excited about our bees, because solitary bees don't produce honey or have a queen to protect they have no reason to be aggressive meaning they are safe to encourage around children and animals.
A great gift for the eco-conscious, a treat for your own garden and a simple and stylish way to do something to help our declining bee population. Simply place in the garden, build into a wall or retrofit in a few simple steps.
There are a few different sizes of bee houses in our range and they work individually but also look great when stacked together.
If you're interested in incorporating bee blocks into an extension, landscape project, new build, retrofit or other project please contact us for a quote and more info here or visit our commercial website HERE for more information.

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.
