           SEPTEMBER 2025 — Autumn brings change,

            ½ bottle of lemon juice (for added effect)

           Bee Garden Relocation
          &#xD;

           One of our Bayonne clients needed to relocate two bee gardens we installed last year. The change came after the city requested access behind their office building to build a new sidewalk connection to the pier for the upcoming ferry commute to NYC. To meet this need, Hewson Landscape stepped in to manage the project from start to finish.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           A new bed was prepared about ¼ mile down the road. The two established bee gardens were carefully dug up and relocated. The original beds were then restored with topsoil and seed, leaving the area neat and professional.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           The entire project was completed in just one day—minimizing disruption while preserving an important ecological feature.
