Callaway wasn't the first to pursue the lost garden. Columbus went inspecting for it in Venezuela. Dr. Livingstone presumed it was in Zambia. John Calvin preached that it lay hidden in Iraq.

As if he could read my mind, and maybe he could, Myles took my hand and gazed into my…

affects some demographics more than others. Still, no one is a complete exception. Everyone needs the bees. Iterations of bees and their family members have been around much longer than the current version of humans have, much like the shark or the alligator. According to Dave Goulson, a biologist and Professor of Biology at the University of Sussex, the first bees began to evolve from predatory wasps millions of years ago when they discovered that pollen is an excellent source of protein.…
