This article appeared today in the on-line edition of the San Francisco Chronicle:
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/04/24/MNHJ176D4C.DTL
The response to the request to plant a specific breed of sunflower and tabulate visits by honeybees has been overwhelming, and many gardeners are re-thinking their use of chemicals because of the link to Colony Collapse Disorder.
Please see www.greatsunflower.org for further information.
