Round up this April to help conserve the bees! The Bee Girl Organization (BGO) aims to conserve our bees by regenerating bee habitat and inviting people to fully understand the importance of bees to our food system and wild landscapes.

The Bee Girl Organization’s mission is to educate and inspire communities to conserve bees, their flowers, and our countryside. The key to bee survival is nutritionally dense floral landscapes created with regenerative methods. Regenerative agriculture reduces and eliminates the need for pesticides and creates healthy soil for a diversity of flowers to thrive in.

Funds will be used to support ongoing work. BGO’s method to ensure bee health through propagating a diversity of specific bee-friendly flowers is embedded in the regenerative agriculture movement through their “Regenerative Bee Pasture” project. BGO will continue to listen to the bees through the data they gather that points toward improved seed mixes and farming techniques and they will continue to listen to what the farming and ranching community needs and what they are excited to give, to create healthier spaces for our bees, people, and planet.

Round up to help save the bees this May! Your donation will support the Bee Girl Organization’s Regenerative Bee Pasture project which is developing a path toward healthier soils, increased pollinator diversity, and more nutrient rich food.

The Bee Girl Organization (BGO) mission is to educate and inspire communities to conserve bees, their flowers, and our countryside. The BGO aims to conserve our bees by educating people, especially kids, on bees’ importance through our programs focused on community classes and events.

The BGO is excited to use the Positive Change funds to specifically support their Regenerative Bee Pasture project through the purchase of tools and seeds. The United States has more acres in pasture than any other land use so determining best management practices that regenerate soil, pollinators and healthy food has far-reaching benefits for a broad range of stakeholders. BGO is already hard at work with local and regional collaborators on this project and are excited to have Diamond Bar Beef testing the outcome of their systems, techniques and tools on part of their grass-fed herd. Through partnership with regional labs including OSU’s Honey Bee Lab, Eastern Washington University’s microbiology lab, and Washington State University’s Bread Lab, they are collecting solid data showing the link between pasture and soil diversity and health. The Positive Change funding received in 2020 contributed to the strong foundation BGO laid for the Regenerative Bee Pasture project, as well as their ability to remain nimble during the pandemic as they transitioned their education and fundraising efforts to online platforms.
