About us
Bees are a pillar of the ecosystem and critical for life to exist on the planet.
Bees are essential for human life, the world would be a desert wasteland without them. Honeybees alone pollinate 80 percent of all flowering plants, including more than 130 types of fruits and vegetables and 40% of all wild natural flowers and plants. You can thank a bee for every 3rd of bite of food you eat.
It’s no secret that the bees need our help. From the rampant use of toxic pesticides to habitat loss due to urban sprawl, the plowing up of grasslands and prairies for mono crop agriculture, and the changing climate, beekeepers across the globe are reporting a 50% annual loss of their hives. You can make a difference by hosting a hive.
