Conservancy garden helps protect and maintain balance of area’s native species Wicked Local Learning honeybees are not native to North America felt similar to the day we all learned Pluto was no longer a fully-fledged planet.    “Yes, our most well-known bee is not native to North America,” said Swampscott resident Suzanne Hale over the phone in a recent interview.  “It’s OK, like honeybees still provide us with a lot – because they are very important for our agriculture.”   The Swampscott Conservancy member supplied the honeybee factoid when the Swampscott Reporter picked her brain about the environmental organization’s pollinator garden on the lawn of the Elihu Thomson Administration Building. She is the architect behind the panoply of native plants rooted in the spot where the Thomson estate formerly planted flowers.
