Tenacious Bee Collective

Tenacious Bee Collective is a group of friends and nature lovers who came together with a mission to bring raw, unpasteurized Himalayan honey to honey lovers everywhere; while simultaneously working with scientists, apiarists, Bee keepers and farmers to revive the dwindling bee population in Himachal Pradesh. While beekeeping and honey gathering has been a traditional practice in Himachal Pradesh for hundreds of years, in more recent times, the widespread use of pesticides in the state, coupled with the low minimum support price given to bee-keepers for their produce, has lead to a sharp decline in both the population of bees, and the number of bee-keepers pursuing this profession within the state. We at Tenacious Bee Collective are working towards addressing these twin problems, starting at the scale of the community, by developing an eco system of knowledge, innovation, production and creativity around Bees and the indispensable value they bring to our ecology and environment.
