Jake Reisdorf’s visionary retail store and education room has come to life in Carmel By-the-Sea. But at his core, there’s more to Jake than just honey and hives. Through his “Jake Gives Back” campaign he visits schools and community groups educating others about honey and bees. This CEO is empowering current and future generations to make positive decisions concerning honey bee health, habitat and pollination. Remember: No Bees, No Food, No People.

The Zoom link will be posted on the website, https://chapters.cnps.org/montereybay/ and sent a day or two in advance in an eblast. The Zoom presentation will start at 7:30 and you’ll need to login to the web link with the instructions that will be available on the Chapter website and sent in the eblast.
