The Bee Conservancy Bee Sanctuary

Vis­it to learn the secrets of hon­ey and native bees, which help pol­li­nate our food and are essen­tial to count­less ecosys­tems. Observe bees in hives, cav­i­ty-hous­es and in-ground habi­tats; meet NYC bee­keep­ers; take home native wild­flower seed pack­ets; engage in arts and crafts; and dis­cov­er ways to keep bees healthy and thriving.

The Bee Con­ser­van­cy is a non­prof­it orga­ni­za­tion ded­i­cat­ed to pro­tect­ing bees, safe­guard­ing the envi­ron­ment, and secur­ing food jus­tice through com­mu­ni­ty-based edu­ca­tion, research, habi­tat cre­ation, and advo­ca­cy. After a decade as The Hon­ey­bee Con­ser­van­cy, the orga­ni­za­tion relaunched as The Bee Con­ser­van­cy in 2020 to bet­ter cap­ture an expand­ed mis­sion to pro­tect all bee species around the world. The orga­ni­za­tion strives towards a day when all bee pop­u­la­tions thrive in pro­tect­ed habi­tats and are sup­port­ed by an engaged glob­al network.
