WATCH: Wild Bee Festival buzzes into Waterford

Last weekend saw the Wild Bee Festival “come home” to Waterford and Waterford News & Star journalist, Shannon Sweeney, went along to see what it's all about.

The festival is an annual event hosted by the National Biodiversity Data Centre in collaboration with a group in the community doing good work in the area of pollinator conservation.

This year that group was B Corridor in Waterford City.

Watch the video clip below created by Shannon in which key points are outlined in relation to bees and the importance of preserving their habitat.
