Thank you for joining us for Viva Abejas 2026 and supporting our mission to amplify and educate on the importance of bees, and their key role in our food systems and ecosystem.

This year, we celebrated these pollinators through our bold, bee-inspired menu collection, and an unforgettable 4-hands collaboration dinner with Chef Richard Sandoval and Chef Bill Kim.

Here’s to the chefs, the partners, and the guests who help us continue this mission, and to the bees that make it all possible. 🌼🐝

On Earth Day, we reaffirm our promise. 🌍🐝
Viva Abejas isn’t a moment—it’s a long-term commitment to education, conservation, and responsible hospitality. Thank you for helping us protect the ecosystems that nourishes us all.
