About Bee the Change

Our Mission

At Bee The Change, we help create vibrant, resilient urban ecosystems that connect people more deeply with the living world. Our work brings pollinators and people into relationship through native and honey bee stewardship, ecological landscape design, specialty pruning, and landcare rooted in permaculture principles. We also offer education and guidance for those who want to take an active role in stewarding their own landscapes.

Our mission is bigger than any single service—it’s about cultivating a network of land stewards who practice reciprocity, contribution, and care. Each garden, hive, and habitat we tend becomes part of a greater web of resilience, where small, intentional actions ripple outward into meaningful collective change.

Bee The Change is queer, neurodiverse, woman-owned and operated, and committed to ecological justice, biodiversity, and community resilience. Together, we can transform our urban landscapes into thriving forces for good—supporting pollinators, nourishing people, and weaving connection across our neighborhoods and beyond.

What People are saying

Meet the owner

Carly Thomasset

Hi! My name is Carly and I have been creating pollinator gardens in Portland, Oregon since 2018. I am passionate about helping people feel a sense of connection and wonder when they look at the world around them and love doing my part to foster and restore relationships between humans and the natural world.  I love sharing the skills needed to create resilience in our communities, food systems, and urban habitats! My specialties are beekeeping and ecological landscaping. 


For the last decade, I have worked and studied in the fields of permaculture, beekeeping, urban habitat restoration, ecological landscaping, herbalism,  farming, natural building, homesteading, and small business management. 


I am a PINA Certified Permaculture Teacher and hold a Permaculture Design Certificate from Oregon State University, as well as a 450+ Hr Clinical & Community Herbalism Certificate from the Northeast School of Botanical Medicine and a Bachelors Degree in Anthropology & Studio Art from SUNY New Paltz. I am currently pursuing an Associates of Science in Landscape Technology with emphasis on Ecological Design at PCC.


I am proud to serve as Board Secretary for the Conscious Growth 501(c)(3) nonprofit
