Our Purpose

Our purpose is to support a sustainable bee population. First by educating local beekeepers on best practice for keeping bees and the threats to the bee populations.  Our group develops local beekeepers as stewards and disciaples so they may inturn educate children, families and local farmers on the importance of bees and the need for communities to minimize use of pesticides, plant bee friendly flowers and provide an interactive educational exhibit at the Old Stone House Museum.  This sort of exhibit will stimulate interest and education in STEM.
