Urban Bee Company is cultivating a local ecosystem of bees, habitats, and humans.

Through our clusters of hives in Seattle’s backyards and community spaces, our chemical-free, Certified Naturally Grown practices, and our new offering of permaculture bee gardens, we cultivate healthy environments for bees and humans.

Through our community education program, bicycle delivery of honey and other hive products, as well as our local beekeeper network, we also find new ways to bring people together through agriculture.

Looking for bees, gardens, good community, and some mouth-watering honey? That’s what we’re after too. Say hello and stay in touch!

Telling the Bees

Urban Bee Co. founder Bob Redmond gave this slideshow talk in February at the Neptune Theater as part of the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture‘s “Hungry Planet: What the World Eats” programming. Each speaker submitted a timed slideshow to which they then gave live remarks. It was a thrill to present with so many terrific people, and support the Burke Museum.

Here’s the short talk, recently posted online (thanks Burke!) It is called “Telling the Bees: How Bees Went from Gods to Slaves.” See all the talks via the link.

(The Burke’s excellent exhibit runs through June 10, 2012! Details here.)
