Join us in celebrating World Bee Day - learn about the importance of bees and what you can do to help protect them!
Get ready to buzz with excitement this May 20th for World Bee Day! This holiday was first established in 2017 to raise awareness of the importance of bees and other pollinators, and their contributions to sustainable development and a healthy environment. Bees play a vital role in food production, as they help pollinate plants that produce fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and more. Not only are they important for our food supply but also for our global ecosystem. So let’s show our appreciation by celebrating World Bee Day!
Planting a bee-friendly garden is one of the best ways to show your support for bees. Plant a variety of flowers and shrubs that are attractive to bees and provide them with plenty of nectar and pollen.
Support local beekeepers by purchasing their honey. It's a great way to show you care about the health of local bees and help support the local economy.
Share posts on social media, write letters to your local newspaper or radio station, or host an event in your community. Let everyone know how important bees are to our environment.
Building a bee hotel is an easy and fun way to give back to bees. A bee hotel provides shelter for solitary bees such as mason bees and leafcutter bees, who don't live in colonies like honeybees.
Organic farming methods are much safer for bees than conventional methods because they don't use synthetic pesticides, which can be toxic to bees. Buying organic produce is a great way to help protect our pollinators.
Bees play an essential role in keeping our planet's ecosystem functioning properly. They pollinate plants and flowers, which allows them to produce fruits, vegetables and other important food sources for both humans and animals to enjoy. Without bees, the world's population of plants and animals would be drastically reduced.
80% of the world's crops are pollinated by bees, making their work invaluable to farmers and growers around the globe. Not only do they ensure that crops get all the nutrients they need to grow, but also without bees it would be much harder to keep up with the high demand for food production worldwide.
Without bees, many species of animals, birds and plants would suffer due to lack of available food sources. Bees help promote genetic diversity among organisms in an ecosystem by providing pollinators with access to different varieties of flora. This helps create more resilient species that can survive in ever changing environments.
