In a world where sustainability and wildlife preservation are becoming a main concern, the Canadian Bee Conservation Project was developed with the objective of offering a positive contribution to the alarming issue of bee colony decline in Canada. Often taken for granted, bees contribute immensely to the flourishing of ecosystems and the pollination of agriculture. On an average scale, 35% of global food production results from bee-pollinated crops.

Inspired by the guerilla gardening movement, this project was comprised of bee-friendly seed bombs packaged in plantable seed boxes. Each box was specific to a certain region in Canada with seeds that varied depending on the different climates across the country. The bombs were composed of a clay and compost mix, enabling them to be preserved indefinitely until planted. Once planted, the clay would naturally decompose and nature would take its course to grow the bee-friendly plants. All users would need to do is find a batch of soil, and bury the box.

Complimentary to the boxes, we designed a website that described which bee-friendly plants would flourish in which Canadian regions. The website also included information on how to best plant the boxes, and local bee conservation efforts in action throughout each Canadian region.
