Cyrielle Willa
Barnacles & Bees was founded by the mothers of five families who discovered their alliance and passion for outdoor education on a Facebook community group. Krystal Meiners put the wheels in motion for a similarly modeled classroom before moving from Seattle. Cyrielle served as Executive Director, Robin is the current Director of Education, Krystal is the current Board President, and Colleen and Bridget previously served as critical members of the Board.
