Our Adopt a Beehive scheme is a great way to do your bit for the environment and assist with your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), it also helps demonstrate how committed you are to helping the environment. Maybe you have thought of the idea of having a beehive but don’t have the time to look after it. Adopting a beehive from Market Harborough Honey Co. will result in many immediate environmental benefits. Once the beehive is deployed to one of our apiaries, the bees will get to work straight away helping the planet like these other adopted beehives.
Through our beehive adoption programme you will be making a direct impact on the environment. We need everyone to help promote pollinators and other insects. Supporting our beehive adoption scheme means we can increase our hive numbers which in turn has a positive impact on the environment.
