DONATE TO COLLECTIVE EYE

The creators of The Real Dirt on Farmer John want you to join the hive and become part of a feature documentary film dedicated to saving the bees.  There has never been a more urgent call to action than now:  our honeybees are in crisis and they need our help. 

Bees pollinate three quarters of the food we eat, they give us honey, medicine and wax, they keep earth in bloom, and they are disappearing.  In the last fourteen years, the world has lost 70 to 90 percent of its domestic and wild colonies.  In the United States alone, more than 24 billion bees have disappeared since spring 2006.

The bees have been giving to us for millions of years; now it's our turn to give a little back.  By donating to Queen of the Sun you can become a Royal Jelly Queen, a Pollen Princess, a Buzzy Worker Bee, a Dashing Drone, or a Happy Hive Builder.  All donations are tax deductible.  Thank you for your consideration.

Royal Jelly Queen - $1,000 + Pollen Princess - $500 Buzzy Worker Bee - $250 Dashing Drone - $100 Happy Hive Builder - $25

About Collective Eye:

Collective Eye makes entertaining films that illuminate the world. Cambodian street kids are transformed by the power of art; veterans haunted by inner wars return to Vietnam;  sideshow pitchmen pull back the curtain on circus culture; a sailor designs environmentally sound racing boats; and a public artist builds green urban bridges...in just a few of our projects.

From the triumph of the human spirit in San Francisco to the miracle of the bees in New Zealand and the Amazon, Collective Eye tells powerful stories that raise awareness and explore solutions: ceremonies in celluloid, dedicated to a diverse and thriving planet.

In Queen of the Sun,  a documentary feature currently in production, filmmakers explore threats to the bees survival from a perspective of hope and renewal. Beekeepers around the world demonstrate a sustainable relationship with the pollinators that offers vital contrast to the commercial industry. Collective Eye brought into focus the revolutionary concept of Community Supported Agriculture with The Real Dirt on Farmer John, and Queen of the Sun continues the theme of humans and nature cooperating in harmony.
