Our Impact
Enhancing Livelihoods and Preserving Forests
A Centuries-Old Tradition Under Threat
For generations, Zambian beekeepers have used bark from indigenous trees to create cylindrical hives, but each hive requires cutting down one tree and lasts only 2-3 years. With the honey market growing over 700% in the past five years, this practice is now unsustainable, accelerating forest degradation. Critically, the trees used for these hives are major nectar producers, and their loss impacts both forests and honey production long-term.
A Sustainable Path Forward
While bark beehives are unsustainable due to the booming Zambian honey market, the traditional knowledge of local beekeepers remains invaluable. This expertise facilitates the transition to more sustainable top-bar beehives made of pine, which last up to five times longer than traditional hives and do not require cutting down local trees. These new hives function similarly to bark hives, leading to better quality honey, reduced disruption to bee colonies during harvest, enhanced community engagement, and positive effects on forest conservation.
