The Problem
There are no teaching hives in the area. Asking private individuals to open their hives for education brings them risk - biosecurity, property security, loss of honey production, etc.
Our Plan
Celebrating the teaching hive with the multiple groups with a stake in its well-being and presence.

What I/we might change:
