Learn about pollination, beekeeping and honey harvests!
Welcome! This initiative takes down barriers of time, resources and knowledge that individuals face when they want to get involved in beekeeping. Located in public urban spaces, the project also raises awareness and educates on honeybees, pollinators and biodiversity. We have hosted many open events around the different beekeeping activities, as well as organized lectures, workshops, and collaborations with schools from the region. So far, we have a successful project running on one location, Lund, Sweden, since 2018. We would love to see the concept implemented in other places!

Sharing honey I harvested with friends and family is a great way of starting conversations about sustainability and the urgent need for everyone to play their part in living more sustainably.
