Giving Back
Bees are pollinators, which directly affects the availability of fresh food (not to mention honey!), healthy flowers and trees. When you purchase Alpine Bee Candles, you are giving back to the bees + other pollinators via organizations working to educate the public and protect pollinators and the environment. See below for more on the organization(s) your dollars are currently assisting through your purchase of Alpine Bee Candles.
Butterfly Pavilion's Pace Program
Pollinator Awareness through Conservation and Education…
One of every three bites of food eaten worldwide depends on pollinators. Without them, there would be no fruits, nuts, vegetables, oils or most flowers! Without pollinators, our food system would be in serious trouble. Without our help, pollinators will be too. PACE is an initiative led by Butterfly Pavilion to increase awareness of pollinators and promote habitat and species conservation and restoration. Through a combination of conservation and education programs, PACE works to create a better world for pollinators—making a better world for all of us.There are so many ways to get involved, and PACE makes it easy to help!
People & Pollinators Action Network
People and Pollinators Action Network(PPAN) promotes pollinator-friendly land management and landscaping practices through community education, engagement and advocacy to preserve biodiversity and safeguard public health. Through our advocacy and coalition-based work, PPAN leads pollinator health and habitat work in Colorado at the grassroots, municipal, and state levels. We advocate for policies and practices that reduce and eliminate the use of pesticides and to create and connect swaths of pollinator-safe habitat with the intent of reversing the drastic decline of pollinator populations—upon which our very existence depends. You can learn more about our recent successes, our Habitat Fund, and more on our website.
