About

Learn about caring for our local pollinators from the source of BARN's bee hotel. They're on a mission to champion the cause of solitary bee conservation and are deeply committed to raising awareness of the indispensable role these remarkable pollinators play in our ecosystem.

The widespread popularity of charming bee hotels, with millions being sold each year, has given rise to a crucial challenge — these well-intentioned accommodations can inadvertently become hunting grounds for the very predators we're trying to protect solitary bees from! Rent Mason Bees takes a proactive approach to tackle this challenge, with a primary focus on ensuring that bee hotels fulfill their role as safe havens for solitary bees. Their measures involve meticulous cleaning to eliminate any potential threats and diligent bee management over the winter. This comprehensive approach ensures that when you receive your nesting materials and bees, they're free from predators, ensuring a clean and secure environment for these essential pollinators.

Rent Mason Bees invites gardeners, environmental enthusiasts, and communities to join their cause. By embracing solitary bees and incorporating them into your gardens, you not only support solitary bee populations but also reap the benefits of these exceptional pollinators. Together, we can make a significant impact on pollination, biodiversity, and the overall health of our ecosystems.
