A Bee City Canada is part of a North American movement to support pollinator protection. This program requires commitment over the next 5 years to improve pollinator habitat in town.
Check out our fundraisers to support our work!
The funds raised by these events will be used to purchase more native plants, build new gardens, and develop educational materials. In 2021, new native gardens will be created at two of the Welcome to Collingwood Signs, a larger garden on Simcoe Street, two raised beds at Sunset Beach Point plus a pollinator canoe by the east beach, and we have loads of other projects in the works! You can find out more information about these gardens on our story map, and you can use our website to discover Ontario’s pollinators and find resources to help you plan your own native garden. Check out below if you want to support our work…

For more than 15,000 years the First Nations walked upon, and cared for, the lands we now call home: Anishinaabek, Haudenosaunee, Ojibwe, and many others who cared for their families and communities, the way we now seek to care for ours.
The Town of Collingwood acknowledges the Lake Simcoe-Nottawasaga Treaty of 1818 and respects all of the Nation-to-Nation agreements that have formed relationships with the original inhabitants of Turtle Island; the reality of our shared history; the current contributions of Indigenous people within our community and seeks to continue empowering expressions of pride amongst all of the diverse stakeholders in this area.
We seek to do better, to continue to recognize, learn, and grow, in friendship and community, Nation-to-Nation.
