Bees:
  • are more important than poultry in terms of human nutrition. Bees from one hive can visit a million flowers within a 400 square kilometer area in just one day.

  • 33 percent of the food we eat depends on their pollination; an estimated $15 billion in US crops each year.

  • 200,000 beekeepers existed in 1950; today, there are less than 1,000 in the US.

Take Part.

Seriously. What are we doing to our planet? Definitely Take Part.
