MISSION

Burgh Bees aims to introduce beekeeping to Pittsburghers in order to promote bees and beekeeping and in so doing, stewardship of the environment.

MENTOR

In support of this mission, Burgh Bees’ seminars and mentorship programs help teach beginning bee-keepers how to responsibly keep their own hives and maintain urban apiaries.

RESOURCES

Bees have been struggling in recent years due to many unnatural stresses which include habitat disruption, monocultural & genetically engineered food provisions, and invasive pathogens & parasites.
