Volunteering & Community
GM’s Urban Garden Project is the Bee’s Knees
When the rooftop garden at the parking garage adjacent to GM’s world headquarters gets started each summer, tenants inside the Detroit skyscraper watch the transformation of a once-empty section of the garage blossom into an ever-growing green space. The addition of honeybee hives helped pollinate the gardens, and now GM manufacturing scrap is providing insulation in the bees’ winter homes.
