Welcome to High Mountain Pollinators & Bees
Join us as we dive into the amazing world of bees and their crucial role in our environment. We're thrilled to have all passionate bee lovers and dedicated beekeepers join our community!
High Mountain Pollinators & Bees is a nonprofit organization that provides educational opportunities for beekeepers and those wanting to establish and protect pollinator habitat. Based in western Wyoming and serving the eastern Idaho and western Wyoming areas, the organization focuses on beekeeping at higher elevations and areas with severe winter conditions. We support pollinator habitat that benefits the pollinator species found in the central Rocky Mountains.
High Mountain Pollinators & Bees provides monthly educational events for its members, often bringing in expert presenters to share their knowledge with attendees. During the summer months (April-October) these events are held at a local apiary where participants can work with actual bee hives, handling frames of bees and gaining a better understanding of high elevation beekeeping.
High Mountain Pollinators & Bees will frequently be asked by elementary school classes and youth groups to come teach their students about beekeeping and native pollinator species. We will teach the students the role that pollinators play in nature, show them examples of basic beekeeping equipment, and frequently bring an observation hive containing live bees where the students can watch the bees at work. They learn about the biology of honey bees, are shown the three types of bees that are found in a hive, and get to taste honey that was produced in the region that they live.
Our Mission
As a nonprofit organization, High Mountain Pollinators & Bees is passionately committed to advancing the welfare of bees and other pollinators. Our mission is two-fold: to deliver top-tier education for beekeepers and the broader community, and to champion the development of pollinator habitats.
Through a rich tapestry of workshops, seminars, and resources, we equip beekeepers with the knowledge and tools necessary to thrive in their craft while instilling a deep-seated reverence for these vital creatures. Moreover, we fervently advocate for the creation of thriving environments that sustain and nourish all pollinators, vital guardians of our ecosystems.
At High Mountain Pollinators & Bees, we stand at the vanguard of education and conservation efforts, driven by an unwavering dedication to the well-being of bees and the invaluable role they play in our world.
Often it is the lack of something that drives change…..
