We had a wonderful time and were thrilled to hear the fantastic feedback from the school: “Thank you so much for such a lovely visit. The students have been buzzing since we saw you.

To delve deeper into the fascinating world of bees, we recently held a bee workshop at Yusen Logistics Frankfurt Airport facility. Under the expert guidance of our beekeeper, Reimund Saffian, our team gained invaluable insights. Here are some key takeaways: 📚 In-Depth Bee Education: Our beekeeper explained the essential role bees play in our environment and their significant impact on human life. We learned how crucial they are for pollination and biodiversity. 📜 Historical Insights: We journeyed through the history of beekeeping, from ancient times to the present, understanding how human interaction with bees has evolved. 🐝 Bee Behaviour: It was surprising to discover how calm and gentle bees can be, yet also how they can fiercely protect their hives when necessary. 🍯 Beyond Honey: Honeybees are incredible producers of not only honey but also wax and propolis, each with its unique benefits and uses. 🛠️ Beekeeping Tools: We explored the various tools used by beekeepers for managing hives and harvesting honey, gaining a hands-on understanding of the beekeeping process. A big thank you to Alvéole and our beekeeper Reimund Saffian for making this workshop both educational and engaging. #BeekeepingWorkshop #Sustainability #UrbanBiodiversity #LocalHoney
