Dr. Becky Langer attended last week’s Bayer #Advocay Forum and we caught up with her there to get more details on Bayer’s latest Feed a Bee announcement.
To promote their new goal of providing pollinator forge in all 50 states, the Bayer Bee Care program is offering a total of $500,000 for grant projects over the next two years. Proposals should come from organizations and request either $1,000, $2,500, or $5,000 for innovative and creative projects. For example, a 4-H club may request money to put in an orchard, or a utility company could submit a proposal to plant forage in their power line right of way. Everyone qualifies for this grant, Langer says. Proposals are judged on what they can do for pollinators.
