Bee proactive

Posted by Courtney Hollands April 28, 2009 02:26 PM

Have you heard of colony collapse disorder? The mysterious phenomenon refers to entire colonies of honey bees disappearing — a scary thought, considering that these winged workers pollinate many of the world's key crops.

For the whole month of May, the Fireplace is offering a honey-laced Help the Honey Bees! menu. Feel good snacking on sweet honey polenta and sipping green honey martinis; the Fireplace is donating 20% of the sales from the special menu to bee research at UC Davis and Penn State.

We're pretty sure Winnie the Pooh would go philanthropist for this cause.
