SAVE THE BEES

Help us protect the precious keystone species responsible for pollinating 1 in 3
bites of food and 80% of the world’s flowering plants.




ADVANCING FOOD SECURITY

We support urban farmers and gardeners who grow produce for food insecure
communities by providing training, supplies, and pollinator habitat.

BEE HABITAT AND POLLINATOR CORRIDORS

Habitat loss is a major threat to countless bees and pollinators. We collaborate
with community, municipal, and corporate partners to  reimagine urban,
underserved, and industrial landscapes as safe pollinator havens.

PROTECTING BEES, BUILDING HABITAT, AND STRENGTHENING COMMUNITIES TOGETHER


A COMMUNITY-DRIVEN APPROACH TO POLLINATOR CONSERVATION

Bees lie at the heart of our survival. They pollinate 1 in 3 bites of food we
eat and 80% of the world’s flowering plants. These precious pollinators are
essential to the health and prosperity of countless ecosystems.

However, bees are in peril. According to the Center for Biological Diversity,
more than half of North America’s 4,000 native bee species are in decline, with
1 in 4 species at risk of extinction. This is due to a range of factors
including habitat loss, pesticide use, climate change, and pests and disease.

For more than 10 years, The Bee Conservancy has partnered with community groups,
schools, foundations, and corporate teams to inspire environmental stewardship,
build and distribute bee habitats, and empower people from all walks of life to
become advocates in their communities. Our programs reach thousands of people
across the country each year and promote environmental equity and a more
inclusive and diverse sustainability movement.

BEE SPECIES ON PLANET EARTH

And only about 8 of them are honey bees! About 70% of bees live underground,
while the remainder live in cavities and holes.

SPECIES ARE AT RISK OF EXTINCTION

According to the Center for Biological Diversity, more than half of North
America’s 4,000 native bee species are in decline, with 1 in 4 species at risk
of extinction.

BITES OF FOOD POLLINATED BY BEES

Bees are an essential part of our agriculture, pollinating many fruits, nuts,
and vegetables. Their health directly impacts food security.

 


CREATING HABITAT FOR BEES AND POLLINATORS

Land development, pesticide use, and the prevalence of invasive, non-native, and
genetically modified plants are just some of the factors that degrade food and
shelter for bees.

Our habitat development work focuses on creating perennial, pollinator-friendly,
native plant gardens in a range of urban and industrial landscapes. This vital
work not only provides essential food, shelter, and nesting sites for bees, but
also bolsters biodiversity, transforms land management practices, and arms
growers with sustainable strategies.
