Our team spent the day out in Wicklow getting up close and personal with some very important, and very small colleagues: the native Irish honey bees!
We partnered with OpenHive Honey, a social enterprise dedicated to conserving Ireland’s native honey bee through ethical beekeeping, habitat creation, and community education. They maintain hives across the country, including our very own company hive, a small but powerful way to support biodiversity.
It was an eye-opening experience learning how essential these bees are to our ecosystems, and just how fragile their survival can be without human support. Plus, we got some sweet honey tasting!
Huge thanks to the OpenHive team for the education, inspiration, and passion they bring to their mission.
