Bike a Bee

Bike a Bee is an urban beekeeping project with about 100 hives on the south side of Chicago, with a few more scattered around the north side. Most of our hives are placed in community gardens, schools, urban farms, and other shared, visible spaces. We believe having bees where people can see them enriches the community’s understanding of bees and the natural systems around them; children, teens, and adults learn through observation and coexistence that bees are our friends, not our enemies!
