Beekeeper help is rolling out to the fires. Patrick Hardy of the non-profit Bee Platoon, received a call to help. Hardy is a Master Beekeeper with the #ucdavis-based California Master Beekeeper Program (CAMBP).

"There are 107 Beekeepers in the Palisades area that have been evacuated," and Patrick Hardy will coordinate assistance for beekeepers. Patrick, a disaster specialist, is launching a Bee Platoon and coordinating with fellow CAMBP members to keep apiaries safe from the fires where possible.

This is the first time a honey bee disaster response team is going to assist during a federally declared disaster."
