Bee Team Project
The Bee Team project is a new project for 2024.
Monaghan Tidy towns has accessed a Community Research Grant to help us record bees for the Bumblebee Monitoring Scheme.

Back in 2016 Monaghan TT were the winners of the first Pollinator Award.
A lot of our work on biodiversity and landscaping is centred around promoting pollinators in our town.
For this project we are recording bees on four separate transects or routes around the town.
Our lead for this project is John Nutley who was one of our trainees for the Leader "Biodiversity Town" Training Project.
John is working with a number of groups including the National Learning Network, the HSE's Mise Day Services and MTT volunteers.
