This tile mural, situated at the entrance to the Garden Friends playground, ties into the playground’s theme of beneficial insects in the garden. The “pollen path” is the route taken by honey bees when they fly out from their hive to forage for nectar and pollen. In their search for food, the bees pollinate the blooms that they visit. Orchards, farm crops, our home gardens, and most flowering plants depend upon honey bees and many other insects for pollination.
