6 Ways to Help Honeybees
We need bees and they need us! Here are 6 easy ways you and your kids can help protect pollinators. #GiveBeesAChance
It’s no secret that pollinators are a crucial part of our food system. In fact, 84% of commercially grown crops are insect-pollinated, and honeybees contribute $24 billion annually to U.S. agriculture. Think about it this way: one in three bites of food are made possible by bees!
Kids are crucial to the future of pollinators so we're bringing the wonder of bees and their hives up close to kids, parents and families. Explore hours of summer activities and honeybee education to learn how you can take sustainability into your own hands, now and in the future.
