Bees Matter welcomes teachers and educators this October to request a complimentary Buzzing Gardens Classroom Kit by emailing contact@beesmatter.ca.

Bees Matter is a partnership of agricultural organizations with a vested interest in pollinator health. In addition to their resources on honey bee health, Bees Matter has developed teacher’s guides. Each year, Bees Matter hosts the Buzzing Gardens program, which strives to address one of the biggest challenges facing honey bee health: finding nutritious food sources. The program makes available free seed kits so that Canadians can plant their very own pollinator-friendly gardens.
