I have dedicated my life since I'm 16 years old to beekeeping and helping the community by choosing everyday to help save our pollinators. I own Pope Canyon Queens since I'm 25 years old here in Winters, CA. I pollinate our crops and work on raising resilient queenbees to help the genetics of the bees.

Last week I lost 40 colonies from a negligent truck driver that just basically, on purpose, destroy our hard work and kill thousand of live bees just for the sake of it, on private property. On top of picking up our dead bees we also pick up their beers ans alcohol trash they left behind. We lost about 3,000$ in bees and material, it might not replace the bees that died that day but your contributions could help us to replace the boxes and set us up to replace the colonies.

If we exceed the goal Pope will be putting all your donations toward our queen breeding program to help us developing more tools and ressources for the bees.

Thank you for the community and people that care about bees just like any other livestock and know their value in our food chain. I see you. Thank you for amazing support.

Best best regards,

Caroline
