Did you know beekeeping was illegal in New York?
Up until 2010, New York City was one of the few jurisdictions in the USA to class beekeeping as illegal – honey bees were categorised alongside hyenas, tarantulas, cobras, dingoes and “dangerous” creatures. Thankfully residents of New York are now allowed keep hives of Apis mellifera, the common, nonaggressive honey bee.
The Body Shop is so concerned about the potential demise of the honey bee in many countries around the world, that it has taken a number of different measures - in addition to sourcing honey and beeswax from traditional bee-keepers. The Body Shop head office in England has introduced bee hives, and these beehives are maintained by employees on-site. Employees have received training to help them keep the hives, and volunteer on a rotating basis, giving thousands of bees a safe haven.
In addition, The Body Shop Foundation is funding research being undertaken by Sussex University in the UK to establish specific flora and fauna to help the British bee in urban areas. This involves planting different species of flowers and shrubs and monitoring the local bee population. To facilitate the research, The Body Shop head office has planted different species of lavender to help the bee on its grounds and the results are being studied by the researchers.
Want to know what you can do to help save the bees?
- Buy fruit and vegetables from stores selling local produce. This encourages and supports local farmers.
- Cultivate a small garden, growing native plants to make it bee-friendly.
- Avoid the use of pesticides.
- Avoid seeds coated in insecticides. These can cause the entire plant to become toxic to bees that may
try to feed on it.
- Resist the temptation to tear up all your weeds. Instead let them grow – especially clover and dandelion
- Create a buzz – help raise awareness of the plight of the bee, by telling friends and family how they can help save the bees.
- Buy honey that is sourced from beekeepers that don’t kill the bees at the end of each season.
- Take up beekeeping. It’s a rewarding hobby, and it’s not just for people living in the countryside.
- Don’t kill the bees! If your garden is attracting swarms of bees, that’s great news. If you are concerned they might sting, contact your local beekeeping association.
About the Honey and Beeswax used in new Honey Bronze
The team at The Body Shop searched long and hard to find honey and beeswax hives and suppliers meeting the objectives of the unique Community Fair Trade programme.
Peter Stedman, from the Community Fair Trade team, says: “I’ve spent time with our suppliers in Ethiopia and Cameroon, visited the hives, seen the bees in action - and frankly developed something of a passion for the honey bee. These creatures are truly amazing, and I’m thrilled that now in the UK our office has hives maintained by
employees. Sadly the opportunity to get up close and personal with the honey bee is under serious threat in many parts of the world - however our suppliers epitomise best practice, using traditional methods to help sustain the natural habitat of the bees”.
The Community Fair Trade honey used in Honey Bronze is supplied by Bezamar, an Ethiopian company that is working with beekeepers from the Bale mountains in the south of Oromia state in Ethiopia. The beekeepers employ traditional methods, using hives handcrafted from locally grown bamboo. This promotes strong, healthy bees, plus it deters logging in the forest. The raw comb is harvested, then tested for quality before the honey is separated and filtered. In addition to ensuring a fair price for this ingredient, The Body Shop pays an additional fund to the Oromia State Forest Department, supporting their excellent work pioneering community forest management.
The Community Fair Trade beeswax used in Honey Bronze products comes from the remote Adamaoua region of Cameroon through an organisation called ‘Guide D’Espoir, which translates to ‘Guiding Hope’. The beeswax is harvested from hives made of local, sustainable materials. The hives last around 2 years, with the grasses and bamboo eventually rotting, which encourages the bees to move regularly, enjoying a new clean home and helping them stay healthy and free of disease.
