Mission Statement Bee Mindful is a nonprofit organization formed and based in New York City. We believe in that urban beekeeping is a great way to relax through nature and create community through new and unique hobbies. Our organization works to provide beekeeping therapy as a way to cope with mental illness symptoms. We want to create a sense of community and promote green minds.

Through our partnership with The Brooklyn Grange, we host educational programs, programs, and community events at their rooftop gardens at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. We also partner with restaurants and local green markets as honey suppliers farmed by our very own program members.
