Why Rewilding Matters

Wild bees are essential—but often overlooked. Many species have lost their habitat due to urban development, pesticides, and overly manicured lawns. Rewilding is about creating space again: for bees, for native plants, and for the kind of biodiversity that makes gardens and ecosystems resilient.

Journey with us to reconnect with our local natural world—one wild bee, one native flower, one small act at a time. Together, we’re rewilding towards healthier habitats, stronger communities, and thriving pollinators.

It doesn’t mean there are no bees—just that no one’s uploaded a photo of them yet. You might be the first to show that bee in your area. Click a photo and upload into iNaturalist!

They’re nature’s undercover heroes. Parasitic wasps regulate pest populations like caterpillars and aphids, supporting garden health. They nest in cavities near the bees, so housing both expands the health of our gardens.

Our Rewilding Collection includes cavity-nesting materials for bees of all sizes, all designed to meet the BeeSafe™ Standard, our science-based framework for nesting and seasonal care. Rewilding works best when the habitat you install actually supports healthy wild bee populations. As science evolves, so will our habitat design suggestions and care guides, always with the health of wild bees in mind.

Unfortunately, even if you refrain from using chemicals in your yard, the wind and rain may still carry pesticides and chemical scents from neighboring lawns and gardens.

Talking to neighbors about chemicals can feel awkward, but it's so important! We've made printable info sheets you can share.
