About Us
Our Purpose and Mission
A new non-profit organization that is helping to address the critical state of the health of the bees. Our main purpose is the advancement of environmental protection and improvement, focusing on the conservation and protection of honey bees by applying the ancient method of rewilding.
Our Vision
To transform beekeeping communities by raising people’s consciousness through a holistic approach to beekeeping and thereby reminding about the long-forgotten instincts and the true understanding of intricate interrelationships, and life processes in nature which work in such a wonderful manner.
Inspired by Nature and Heritage
We integrated all the available research data and based our conservation strategy on a holistic approach to beekeeping. Using the latest 3D print technology and traditional Bashkir man-made cavity log hives as the main medium of our strategy, provide the bees an opportunity to live in an undisturbed ecosystem in synergy with their seasonal rhythms. Natural nest habitat is the key aspect for preservation and renewal of health and resiliency of honey bees.
