Join this intriguing conversation with Ken Edgar, Master Beekeeper, to understand the power, presence, and purpose of the honey bees. Honey bees play a crucial role in pollinating crops and supporting global food supplies, yet their populations continue to decline because of interconnected environmental, agricultural, and biological challenges. Addressing this issue calls for a combination of strategies, including improved beekeeping practices, limiting pesticide exposure, restoring natural habitats, and strengthening ecosystems against climate change. Ken will even share his story of how his bees were stolen in what's legally known as bee wresting.
