This year Carson City became the 76
th
Bee City USA! Being a Bee City means
we are dedicated to providing an enriching environment for pollinators to
thrive, not only in our parks, but throughout our community. Being a Bee
City also means educa ng the public on the benefits of pollinators, including
events like the upcoming "Carson City Earth Day: Celebrate Pollinators."
Pollinators are essen al to the community's food produc on and it is up to all
of us to help reduce impacts to the pollinator popula ons, for the benefit of
future genera ons . While we're hoping there will be more Bee Ci es in the future, we're
proud that the capital city is se ng the example by being the first Bee City in Nevada. For
more informa on on Bee City and how you can help, please visit carson.org.
