Stranger Than Wal-Mart

"Some 138 million Americans shop at Wal-Mart each week, making it perhaps the single most unifying cultural force in the country."

Venture #2 | Tyson Pulsipher

Some things go unappreciated in life. From where I am sitting I can see two of these unappreciated “workers” going about their daily business. Though usually regarded as a pest or nuisance, it is quite seldom that we take the time to understand and appreciated the importance of these creatures. I remember my dad teaching their importance in our small garden as a boy. “If they did not come and pollinate the blossoms, then we would have to do it by hand with a Q-tip” he said. It’s thanks to them that we ever had delicious home grown tomatoes and squash, or that we enjoy the blooming of flowers in the spring.

Not only do they help with the blossoms on plants, they make our lives a little sweeter. I have always wanted to know what honeycomb tastes like…
