We’re planning something exciting!

Whether you’re passionate about bees, interested in climate change, or excited about advocacy, this is your chance to help create an event that’s truly meaningful and fun.

To gather 2024 Colorado Pollinator Summit attendees’ experiences and feedback, we’re hosting this Collaboration Exploration Meeting with the goals of:

1. Summarizing key takeaways from the Summit to build effective conservation collaborations;

2. Identify vested organizations or groups that may be interested in building new collaborations year-round; and

3. Developing shared goals for future collaborations and next steps for creating new pollination conservation efforts here in CO.

All are welcome. We usually have about 30 Summit attendees there, and we meet in the Ballroom at Butterfly Pavilion (no entry fee required).

Registration is free, but we do ask that you RSVP here on Eventbrite so that we can plan for the correct number of seats (and snacks! : )

Please email connect@coloradopollinator.network if you have questions.
