Pollination Summit 2018 is a two-day celebration of native plants and local pollinators, of community-stewarded urban beehives, of pollinator gardens, of local makers and crafters, and of discovery, storytelling and connecting to nature and each other.
This artfully hosted afternoon of participatory community dialogue closes the summit and will point the way forward to coming work in the community.
We are guided by these questions:
HOW CAN WE REESTABLISH SACRED RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE NATURAL WORLD AROUND US?
What do people want? What do pollinators need?
