OVERVIEW

Description

Invent the easiest, happy-go-luckiest ways to feed honeybees and save our pollinators. Ever. Then put them into action, setting a global example with a strong local effort.

Execution

Starting in Atlanta, GA, we transformed a dilapidated neighborhood space into a beautiful educational garden, complete with local wildflowers and a colorfully uplifting mural, designed by locally beloved artist, Olive47. The mural served a global purpose. We wrote a custom music track and filmed a video using the mural and garden as key elements, to engage consumers nationwide to go online and order free seed packets, and encourage global consumers to participate by Tweeting a Bee emoji with #feedabee and Bayer will plant flowers on their bee-half.
