Join Us for Events on Bees, Gardening, Food Justice, Sustainability, and More!
The Bee Conservancy hosts a range of free online and in-person community events to educate, engage, and inspire environmental stewardship. Our tours, lectures, and kid-focused fun are here to serve and build community through the celebration of our favorite pollinators: bees!
From film screenings and live honey bee “hive dives,” to nature walks, community science tours, expert panels, and arts and crafts, we’ve got something for anyone interested in learning more about the keystone species that pollinates one in three bites of food we eat and 80% of the world’s flowering plants.
