Buzzing with Purpose: Teaching Kids to Protect Pollinators | Luke Howard (Going Deeper)

These conversations will focus on interesting people I've come across that share similar values, perspectives and intentions expressed on the Minimalist Moms Podcast.Did you know our world depends on bees more than most of us realize? In this episode, we sit down with Luke Howard, founder of the Bee Collective, a visionary organization dedicated to supporting pollinators through education, habitat creation, outreach, and even art.
