PPAN's Annual Bumblebee Bash

Thank you all for a great 2025 Bumble Bee Bash! We surpassed our fundraising goal and had so much fun celebrating with you all! 🥂🐝🥂

The Bumble Bee Bash is a beloved tradition for PPAN. It's not just a fundraiser, it's a celebration and an opportunity to take in all that is good and refuel ourselves to keep up the good work. 

This year we were happy to have former Colorado Speaker of the House and EPA Region 8 administrator KC Becker joining us as our keynote. KC was instrumental in the founding of PPAN and knows how to keep movements going and growing! Thank you to KC and Erica Blum from Representative Joe Neguse's office for you comments at the event.

Please patronize and support these pro-pollinator local businesses who all donated items and services to our event and auction!
