Traverse directory and zip certain subdirectories in place

Question

How can I bulk-zip folders in subdirectories without including the parent folder in the zip archives? I have a folder structure like this:

folder01
    folder02
        file01
        file02

When I run:

find . -type d -name "folder02" -exec zip -r '{}'.zip '{}' \;

I get "folder02.zip" which always extracts its contents into a parent folder "folder01". How can I prevent this? For me it creates useless parent folder structures when extracting these archives anywhere else.

Using some simple bash:

find . -type d -name "folder02" -exec bash -c 'cd "$(dirname "{}")"; zip -r "$(basename "{}")".zip "$(basename "{}")"' \;
