🌼 Celebrating Community at the Pollinator Festival: A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Supporters 🐝

As we count down to the Pollinator Festival on Saturday, June 21, 2025, our hearts are full of gratitude for the many organizations and individuals who are helping make this joyful, educational, and inspiring event possible. The Pollinator Festival isn’t just a day of fun—it’s a celebration of community, biodiversity, and the shared responsibility we all have to protect the bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and other pollinators that keep our world blooming.

This festival wouldn’t happen without the generosity and collaboration of our supporters. We’d like to extend our sincerest thanks to the following sponsors for their financial support and steadfast belief in this work:

🌿 Firstenburg Foundation
🌿 City of Vancouver’s Naturespaces Program & Community Grants Program
🌿 Port of Vancouver USA
🌿 Fourth Plain Forward
🌿 Clark Public Utilities

Your contributions help us host educational talks, kids’ activities, vendor booths, garden tours, and art programming—all free and open to the public. Together, we are building a more connected, informed, and pollinator-friendly Vancouver.

We’re also incredibly grateful to McSteven’s, a local business that generously donated a portion of their online shop profits from January through March to the Vancouver Bee Project. Their financial gift helps us bring this festival to life. From cocoa to community impact—thank you, McSteven’s!

Behind the scenes, we’re supported by amazing partners who keep things running smoothly. A special thank you goes to:

♻️ Waste Connections – for donating waste and recycling services so we can host a clean, sustainable event.
🚗 Clark College – for providing festival parking support and helping our attendees get to the fun with ease.

These partnerships exemplify the spirit of collaboration that the Pollinator Festival is all about. Whether you're a funder, a volunteer, a vendor, or a visitor, you’re part of something bigger—something buzzing with purpose.

So mark your calendar, spread the word, and get ready to celebrate pollinators and community with us on June 21 at Marshall Park. And to all of our supporters: we couldn’t do this without you. Thank you for believing in the power of pollinators—and people.
