Friends of Indian Hill Cemetery

The Board of Trustees and The Friends of Indian Hill are excited to announce that the cemetery is now part of a new era of conservation. The cemetery is now home to new honey bee hives. Our beekeeper, Mark Bell, has placed several bee hive boxes at the cemetery in an area not suitable for interments. Mark will monitor the progress of the newly established beehives and hopefully, at some point, be able to harvest honey. Local raw honey does more than taste good, it has many medicinal uses. 1/3 of the food we consume each day is pollinated mostly by bees. Raising bees is becoming more popular by the day and the cemetery is pleased to be a part of this environmentally responsible program.
