||| FROM WASHINGTON STATE BEEKEEPERS ASSOCIATION |||
WASBA has decided to petition the state for a vehicle license plate that recognizes honey bees and pollinators and their importance to our food supply.
In order to win approval, WASBA needs to collect signatures from people who are willing to purchase 3,500 license plates for cars, trucks, trailers – any vehicle requiring a license plate. So, if you or a friend of yours would be interested in having such a plate on more than one vehicle, that is the number that you would put on the Special License Plate Series Signature Sheet (pdf). The funds raised from this project will be a recurring source of revenue that will be administered by WASBA and will go toward honey bee and pollinator research and education in the state.

Where are the pictures of bumblebees? They forage twice as far as honeybees and as such, need representation.
Do they say how much these would cost? It’d help to know if they will be affordable. Where or how do we find out?
