Bee Conservation Programs
Where education and conservation come together to help pollinators thrive.
501(c)(3) Nonprofit • Protecting Pollinators Nationwide
Save The Bees USA is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit. We protect honey bees and native pollinators through education, habitat restoration, responsible beekeeping, and hands-on conservation programs.
Our programs connect schools, beekeepers, communities, businesses, and conservation partners with practical ways to help pollinators. Observation hives bring bee education into classrooms, while native bee and habitat projects turn conservation lessons into action.
Bringing live honey bee education into schools and communities across the United States. Our observation hive program gives students a safe, up-close look at colony life while supporting hands-on STEM education and a deeper understanding of pollinators.

Honey bees are only part of the story. Our Mason Bee Program supports native solitary bees through nesting habitat, education, and community participation designed to help these important pollinators thrive.
Our Bumblebee Restoration Program protects native bumblebees by expanding nesting habitat and improving forage. It also helps communities understand the vital role bumblebees play in American ecosystems.
Healthy managed honey bee colonies depend on knowledgeable, responsible beekeeping. We promote practices that prioritize colony health, proper management, education, and the long-term sustainability of honey bees and beekeeping.
Our Adopt A Hive program gives individuals and organizations a direct way to support honey bee conservation. It also funds responsible beekeeping, education, and the work needed to maintain healthy colonies.
Protecting pollinators begins with understanding why they matter.
Save The Bees USA moves pollinator education beyond books and websites. We create hands-on opportunities for students, teachers, families, beekeepers, and communities.
When people see how a honey bee colony works, conservation becomes easier to understand. Learning about native bees and habitat loss also gives people clear ways to take action.
Our educational programs turn curiosity into participation. Observation hives, school programs, community outreach, and hands-on projects bring conservation to life.
Participants learn about honey bee biology, native pollinators, habitat, responsible beekeeping, and healthy ecosystems. Observation hives turn classroom lessons into living experiences. Pollinator gardens and native bee habitats let students watch conservation unfold throughout the year.
Education creates an impact far beyond one classroom. Students take what they learn home, teachers build pollinator science into future lessons, and families begin planting flowers and reducing practices that harm beneficial insects.
Beekeepers and community partners also share their knowledge with others. One educational experience can lead to years of greater awareness and involvement.
That is why education remains central to the mission of Save The Bees USA. We are not simply teaching people about bees. We are helping build a generation that understands the importance of pollinators and knows that individual actions can make a difference.
Save The Bees USA believes education is most powerful when people have an opportunity to put what they learn into practice. Understanding the importance of pollinators is the first step. Creating habitat, supporting responsible beekeepers, providing homes for native bees, and bringing pollinator education into schools are the actions that create lasting results.
Our programs are designed to make that transition possible. An observation hive can introduce students to the remarkable world inside a honey bee colony.
A Bumblebox provides important nesting habitat while helping communities learn about native bumblebees. Mason bee programs show that pollinator conservation extends far beyond honey bees.
Adopt A Hive and Adopt A Queen give individuals and organizations direct ways to support healthy honey bee colonies and responsible beekeeping.
Each program approaches conservation differently, but they share the same purpose: give people a practical way to participate.
That participation matters because protecting pollinators cannot happen through awareness alone. Pollinators need suitable habitat, reliable food sources, responsible management, places to nest, and communities willing to protect the environments they depend on. Schools, families, gardeners, beekeepers, businesses, and community organizations can all contribute.
By connecting education with real conservation projects, Save The Bees USA helps turn concern for pollinators into meaningful action. Some people may begin by learning about bees. Others may support a hive, establish habitat, bring an educational program into a school, or help expand conservation into a new community.
