WHY ARE BEES SO IMPORTANT?
Bees are vital for our planet! They’re the amazing pollinators that help flowers bloom and produce the fruits and vegetables we eat. According to the United Nations, a whopping one-third of the food we enjoy depends on bees. And it’s not just our food – nearly 90% of wild plants and most of the crops we rely on need animals like bees to pollinate them.
Sadly, bee populations are in serious trouble. Habitat loss from intensive farming, pollution, climate change, and the overuse of harmful pesticides are all taking a toll on these incredible creatures. And guess what? These problems are largely caused by us humans.
If bee populations continue to decline, it will have a major impact on our food supply, leaving us with fewer and fewer things to eat.
NTFP-EP Vietnam is working to protect bees while respecting the traditional beekeeping practices of the Bahnar people, who rely on the forest for their livelihood. We’re also dedicated to teaching sustainable forest management methods in Kon Ha Nung forest, so the Bahnar can improve their lives without harming the environment.
Buying our honey supports the Bahnar community and helps preserve the environment for future generations.
