About Us
Promoting Tree planting in communities
We value tree planting since one cannot separate bees from trees. The two are inseparable. The planting of trees supports our afforestation programs that addresses issues related to land restoration, bee habitat establishment, bee nectar sources, conservation, human nutrition from fruits and seed and human health. The trees that are chosen are those that give communities multiple benefits.
