Cordell Hull Lake creates buzz around USACE's new pollination effort

CARTHAGE, Tenn. (July 25, 2024) -- Cordell Hull Lake is about an hour east of Nashville. The location, like some other U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nashville District lakes, juxtaposes the hustle and bustle of the city with a peaceful and scenic woodland setting. But make no mistake; there’s still a noticeable “buzz” of workers that keep themselves just as busy as the city folks: They just opt to work in honeycombs rather than office cubicles.

The buzz around Patoka Lake is that pollinators are an important part of nature

This week is National Pollinator Week, June 20-26, and those interested in learning about pollinators and how they fit into the ecosystem can visit Patoka Lake in Dubois, Ind., to see some local pollinators in action.  Patoka Lake is home to two hives of honeybees – each containing 20,000 to 60,000 of the flying little pollinators.
