About

About

Swarm was established to improve bee health in Oregon. More than 600 species of bees perform critical pollination in our state. In order to survive and thrive, bees require access to nutrients, nesting habitat, and protection from pesticide exposure. Current Swarm initiatives focus on education, advocacy and collaboration with like-minded organizations. Swarm is a registered Oregon Nonprofit Corporation organized for educational purposes and public benefit.

These links provide learning resources for individuals hoping to protect bees, enhance their habitat and expand our understanding of over 600 species of wild bees in Oregon.
