St. Catharines

The largest city in the “fruit basket of Canada” now a Bee City!

Located in the Niagara region of south-central Ontario, an area known for its exceptional fruit, vegetable and flower production, St. Catharines has become the eight Canadian Bee City.

We are grateful to Renee Delaney of the Niagara Farm Project, Mayor Walter Sendzik and a host of other community members for pledging to do their part to support pollinators.

In 2022, we worked with community groups to plant pollinator gardens in underutilized greenspaces around the City as well as supported a “No-Mow” area of a City trail and planted bee friendly trees and shrubs where appropriate.
