Business dedicated to saving bees

Spriggly’s Beescaping is a new small business located in Waynesville that offers workshops, products, and services to create environments that support beneficial pollinators.

Husband and wife team Brannen Basham and Jill Jacobs relocated to the region from the Philadelphia area in June 2016 to start the business. They offer affordable, low-maintenance solutions that any gardener can implement to support native pollinators and increase production in their garden or farm and provides a series of educational opportunities for individuals, community groups, educational institutions, and K-12 students.

To see a Spriggly’s exhibit in Waynesville, visit cut-your-own flower farm, Love Lane Flower Farm at 431 Dellwood City Road, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday-Thursday and 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday-Saturday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sundays.

At our inception 20 years ago, we chose to be different. Unlike other news organizations, we made the decision to provide in-depth, regional reporting free to anyone who wanted access to it. We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home. If you are able, please support The Smoky Mountain News.

The Smoky Mountain News is a wholly private corporation. Reader contributions support the journalistic mission of SMN to remain independent. Your support of SMN does not constitute a charitable donation. If you have a question about contributing to SMN, please contact us.
