Bring an Alvéole program to your building

The Alvéole bees have been buzzing in Washington, D.C. since 2020. Known for its densely packed cultural diversity and iconic Capitol Hill, Washington, D.C. is also a busy beekeeping hub. From lush cherry blossoms to aromatic clover, linden trees, and goldenrod, the city’s green spaces are covered in delicious sources of nectar and pollen for all pollinators.
