At Wellington Way, the Council announced a decision to use “Bee Democracy” as the process for finding our new physical home.

That means we are ALL scout bees, keeping our eyes open as we travel about town looking for locations that might work for us. 

Our basic requirements are that a space be accessible, have relative ease of parking & public transit, be visible from the street, and have restrooms that everyone can use. Other than that, the sky’s the limit!

If you see a spot that’s worth checking out, let us know!

Watch the video clip below to learn more about Bee Democracy. (Start at the 5 minute 30 second mark for the most relevant part.)
