Eden Honeybee Project

BEES - Please Join & Show Support for This International Project Happening Here in the Garden Route: Did you know that bees are in danger because of widespread disease? And that the whole planet's food chain is under threat because of it? It may be linked to the use of antibiotics and insecticides.

But here in the Garden Route, from Mosselbay and George to Knysna and The Crags, our beekeepers and their healthy bees are attracting attention across the world?

Thanks to Conservation Global, we are now linked to experts in Italy. It's called the Eden Honey Bee Project and you can join their page at www.facebook.com/edenhoneybeeproject. Food affects us all! Please show your support.

Eden Honeybee Project is an ethical project promoting health of honeybees free of AFB. Based in the Garden Route of South Africa and linked to the world.

"Literacy is a bridge from misery to hope, a tool for daily life in modern society, a bulwark against poverty and a building block of development. Literacy is a platform for democratization, and a vehicle for the promotion of cultural and national identity. It is an agent of family health and nutrition, the road to progress and and a basic human right."- Kofi Annan

Eat Like a Pro: Health Tips from Kelly Slater

Health tips from the one and only...

It wasn’t until my early 20’s that I became conscious of what I was eating. As a professional athlete, you are always looking for that edge. You don’t ever want to have to question it. You want to do the work early and know that it is there.
