In Acevedo, a group of 21 farmers has turned to beekeeping as a means to protect biodiversity

In Acevedo, a group of 21 farmers has turned to beekeeping as a means to protect biodiversity. The association focuses on conserving native bee species and forest plants like black oak, linking their efforts to pollination protection and ecosystem care. They hold a Green Business certification, with 100% natural honey as their main product, which is influenced by weather conditions. Heavy rains can hinder bee feeding and require enhanced hive management. Their honey is sold in Huila and other regions, reaching markets in Ecuador and Peru.
