Veteran Uses 1.2 Million Honeybees to Combat PTSD

At Stormy Acres Bee Farm in Bowie, Maryland, retired Marine Corps veteran Allan Storm manages 100 bee colonies and about 1.2 million honeybees, finding purpose in this work after 22 years of military service. He began beekeeping around 2007 and now leads Hives for Heroes, a national nonprofit that connects veterans and first responders with experienced beekeepers to aid their transition to civilian life. Founded in 2018 by Steve Jimenez, another Marine Corps veteran, the organization has grown to nearly 10,000 members, as reported by WJLA.
