#unforgettableNWAB

World Bee Day highlights how closely our food systems depend on pollinators. In Northwestern Alberta, that connection has a strong local impact, where rural landscapes play a meaningful role in global food security, one hive at a time. 🐝

Located in Beaverlodge, The National Bee Diagnostic Centre is Canada’s only dedicated bee health lab. Beekeepers from across the country send hive samples here to identify issues like mites, disease, and colony stress, supporting pollination on a national scale.

In a region shaped by agriculture, this work reflects the intersection of farming, applied research, and rural innovation.

From applied research to wide-open landscapes, the region rewards the curious. Visit gptourism.ca 🌻
