At O'Hare Airport, Unused Land Is Going to the Bees (From GOOD.is)
"That buzzing sound you hear at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport could be a jet taking off. Or maybe it's coming from the 1.5 million bees that call the airport home. In May, the Chicago Department of Aviation partnered with a community group to start a 2,400 square foot apiary on-site. Now 23 beehives are up and running and are scheduled to yield 575 pounds of honey this year."
An innovative use of land that supports bee populations in an urban/industrial environment.
