Important Pollinators:

Native Bees, European honeybees, butterflies, insects, birds, and bats.

Safer, Less Toxic Alternatives for Pest Control reduce the risk to pollinators, wildlife, and human health.

P

Rusty-Patch Bumble Bee and other native bees and  pollinators are in decline due to habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change.

Our Mission

Beekeepers are experiencing losses of honeybee colonies in part by the use of systemic pesticides, especially Neonicotinoids (Neo-nics) which are lethal to bees and other pollinators.
