Bee The Change: If We Protect, Nature Will Provide (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218265595)

"One afternoon, a bee set out into the world to gather nectar and pollen and found a world so beautiful and lovely he couldn't help but share it. This book chronicles that bee's journey."

This book will provide travel narratives and word-paintings to satisfy the adventurous soul, as well as interviews to educate and inform how we can heal bee populations and promote their habitats. As you take this journey with me, we will learn both in our heads and in our hearts why bees and other pollinators are so important.

After traveling by bicycle through New York, and then by train through Canada from Toronto to Vancouver, my pedal-powered travels will take me from the apples, cherries, and hazelnut orchards of Washington down to the almond, avocado, and orange groves of California. I will contact many farmers and other earth stewards in passing. Between these stops, hundreds of individuals each day will see an oddly inspiring man donning a bee-patterned helmet, complete with antennae, riding down the U.S. Route 101 on a Vitamin "B" Road bicycle. The symbolism is unmistakable: I am representing the bees and insect life in general.

"The search for knowledge and truth blesses us two-fold. I have reveled in both the journey and the destination. This bee has flown its hive, gathered goodness from myriad flowers, and returned."
