The Problem

Pollinator populations are declining worldwide. This includes native honey bees, butterflies, and more. The decline is a serious concern due to the vital role pollinators play in food production and ecosystem health. Pollinator hotels offer crucial nesting sites for solitary bees and other pollinators, helping to boost their populations and enhance pollination in gardens and urban areas. These structures provide safe spaces for bees to lay eggs, overwinter, and find shelter from the elements and predators, contributing to biodiversity and supporting ecosystems.

Our Plan

A workshop for elementary school kids, teaching them about the importance of native pollinators and allowing them to build their own take home pollinator hotels.
