What people are saying
"I hired Kristen to instruct a workshop on native bees for my organization and it was absolutely splendid! Kristen is extremely knowledgeable and her teaching style is both approachable and experienced. Kristen's passion for farming and bees truly shines through, and our group fed off her energy. I highly recommend hiring her for your next event!" - Amanda Kao, The Bad Academy
'Kristen has worked at Terra Nova Nature School as an educator in our ongoing school aged programs as well as taught a specialty one week bee camp for children ages 6-9. Kristen has a natural way with youth, connecting easily with them and making each class interesting and joyful. They are committed to making each class special by offering thoughtful and responsive programming that is always engaging and informative. Kristen is able to follow their curriculum plans and framework and yet also allow for flexibility as the children add ideas and meander down new pathways of learning.'
-Emily Vera, Terra Nova Nature School Coordinator
Kristen is an enthusiastic and engaging workshop leader! She has led a few different workshops for various youth camps and leadership teams from City Centre Community Centre, all of which have been educational and interactive. The youth enjoyed the hands on learning experience as Kristen introduces topics that are important and new to them such as planting microgreens and creating mason bee houses. I would definitely recommend Kristen for any future workshops and presentations!

" I think bees are fascinating and am passionate about learning but I did not think I would come out of this workshop with such a wealth of knowledge, nor did I have any idea how much I did not know about local pollinators. My mind was blown too many times to even count. As much as I thought bees were fascinating before, I have a whole new level of awe for them now."
