Bees don't just make honey, they pollinate a third of our food supply. But bee colonies are disappearing at an alarming rate in the US. In addition to being ecologically essential, bees are highly social and complex creatures that are vulnerable to a barrage of attacks ranging from parasitic mites to pesticides and herbicides. If you care about the future of food and want to learn more about how to ensure the survival of our precious honey bees, please plan to attend.
