Founder & Co-Director
Sarah Red-Laird is the founder and Executive Program Director of Bee Regenerative and the Bee Girl organization (BGO), a grassroots nonprofit centered on bee habit conservation through research, regeneration, & education. Her work currently has her chasing bees from the Coast Mountains of Oregon, though the Great Basin, to Montana’s Paradise Valley, and into the Great Plains. She is a graduate of the University of Montana's College of Forestry and Conservation and the Davidson Honors College with a degree in Resource Conservation, focused on community collaboration and environmental policy.
To see her commitment to good policy and education realized, she has formerly served as the director of the American Beekeeping Federation’s “Kids and Bees” program, as president of the Northwest Farmers Union and Western Apicultural Society, and as a board member of the National Farmers Union. When she is not working alongside bees, beekeepers, kids, farmers, ranchers, vineyard managers, and policy makers, Sarah loves to read books while drinking coffee, ride her vintage 10-speed, run in the hills, and see new places, things, and people.
