Bees are responsible for about 80% of pollination around the world, and seventy out of the top 100 human food crops are pollinated by bees! The bee population in the US has declined by about 60% since 1947, but many organizations are doing good work to save the bees!Pollinator Partnership is a non-profit organization that does work to protect pollinator species all across the globe! They do a variety of work to save the bees, including:
Providing resources for beekeepers in North America to create bee habitats,
Awarding research grants for honeybee health, and
Working with the agricultural industry in the United States to promote pollinator programs
Supporting local farmers to become bee-friendly
We are donating 20% of the Bee Pole and the Honeycomb Trellis to Pollinator Partnership!
