June is National Pollinator Month – a time to celebrate bees and spread the word about how we can protect them and educate each other and our children about the important role that they play in our ecosystem and the foods that we eat. Pollinators are responsible for 1 out of 3 bites of food we eat – yet their habitat is shrinking, and many species are in danger. With support from supplier partners and customers, our goal is to build awareness about this cause and fund more bee grants to get more students excited about the world of bees!

Building a connection with a school garden or bee hive grant recipient is a powerful way to connect withour work in a meaningful way. With a minimum contribution of $2,000, you can support a school gardenor bee hive grant! And, if you have a goal of supporting multiple schools, we can make that happen, too.
