About Bee Friendly Williamstown
Bee Friendly Williamstown promotes the preservation and expansion of habitat for insect pollinators in recognition of their essential role in the health of our planet’s ecosystems. Through newsletters, seminars, workshops, field trips, community engagement, and public demonstration gardens, Bee Friendly Williamstown supports sustainable landscaping and gardening practices and advocates for the reduction of pesticide use.
Bee Friendly Williamstown was founded in 2017 following the passage of a non-binding resolution declaring Williamstown a "pollinator-friendly" community.

Join us for the summer season at the Spruces!
Join us in the summer months, most Wednesdays between 4-5:30 pm, at the Pollinator Plantings by the pond at The Spruces, 60 Main St in Williamstown. Bee Friendly volunteers tend the garden by pulling unwanted plants, spreading wood chips, trimming overgrowth, and other gardening tasks. RAIN CANCELS.
All are invited to come lend a hand, or simply enjoy the lovely blossoms and their pollinating visitors. Come ask us your gardening questions and learn how you, too, can create a pollinator paradise.
