Austin is a Bee City!

Becoming an official Bee City is not easy. Reversing the decline of native pollinators also takes work. To support these essential "workhorses" of our local ecosystems, the city has committed to various conservation efforts. While these initiatives can make a positive impact, we can't do it alone—we need your help! Native pollinators work tirelessly every day, often unnoticed, performing critical ecological tasks. Together, we can create a brighter future for these amazing insects. Join us in supporting and sustaining them, as they need our help now more than ever.
