Recently, Berner Zeitung published an article about our tree hollow project in Burgdorf. 📰
https://bernerzeitung.ch/burgdorf-fuer-wilde-honigbienen-werden-baeume-angesaegt-846652220097
🌳 The article shows how we are carefully protecting the trees and at the same time creating ideal conditions for the bees, why we critically question the current practices of modern beekeeping and gives an insight into our vision: Honey bees should be able to adapt naturally to their environment again without constant human intervention.
🤨The article also includes the critical voice of the president of the association BienenSchweiz: "Although Schwegler finds the idea of tree hollows interesting, he questions their usefulness. Since nature no longer looks like it used to, many bees would starve in the wild. "
💡 Well, that's exactly the problem, Mr. President and we can see that our measures are working by the fact that around 20 wild bee colonies have already taken up residence in the hollows! 🐝💪
