Supporting Indigenous Women Weaving Bee-Friendly Hives 

Gabee Romero & Jane de Forest. We are two women from two different continents, who have joined together to sponsor indigenous mothers in Ecuador and support the native and honeybee populations here in the USA and South America.

Our Mission: To promote, bee centered beekeeping, and bee friendly flower production in Bee Farm Shunku Ecuador, to inspire them and others to regenerate spaces and bee come bee stewards in their own land. To train native women to weave bee skeps and who’s ancient art of weaving has been all but lost.

All proceeds for this project are reinvested in the bees and bee habitats.
