About Our Partnership with Bee-Family Conservatory

At Inbeetween, we are passionate about making a difference through our jewellery. We believe in contributing to causes that align with our values, and that’s why we are proud to partner with Bee-Family, a dedicated bee conservatory that shares our commitment to sustainability and environmental preservation.

Bee-Family: A Legacy of Passion and Care

Founded in 2012 and now run by the second generation, Bee-Family operates from a former farmhouse in Frasnacht, located on the picturesque Swiss shore of Lake Constance. This family business is deeply rooted in the protection of bees and the production of premium honey. Their mission is to care for the well-being of bees and to deliver pure, unadulterated honey straight from the hive to the jar.

The Story and Work of Bee-Family

Bee-Family, founded in 2012 and now managed by the second generation, is deeply rooted in sustainable beekeeping practices. The inspiration behind Bee-Family came from Marisa Bühler, who discovered her love for the Carnica bee as a child while learning beekeeping from her grandfather in Carinthia. Under the guidance of Hans Züst, she established a small bee house in Uzwil, which grew into the thriving Bee-Family we know today. Her realization that bees struggle to survive without human care in the current environmental conditions prompted her to create Bee-Family with a focus on bee conservation.

Bee-Family’s commitment to ethical beekeeping means prioritizing the well-being of the bees over honey production. They maintain high standards and adhere to good beekeeping practices, ensuring their premium honey is a true reflection of their dedication. Their bees thrive in natural settings, and Bee-Family places great importance on selecting these habitats carefully, recognizing that a diverse range of food sources is essential for many insect species, including bees and wild bees. This approach helps support a healthy ecosystem and promotes the broader goal of environmental sustainability.

Our Shared Vision and Commitment

Bee-Family envisions a world where nature and humans coexist harmoniously. Their goal is to create shared living spaces that foster an intact natural environment, guided by the cycles of the seasons. They are dedicated to providing pure food for both bees and humans, demonstrating the crucial role bees play in our ecosystem. This vision aligns perfectly with our values at Inbeetween.

Sustainability and Care at Bee-Family

Bee-Family practices sustainable beekeeping with a focus on long-term, responsible business practices. Protecting valuable resources for future generations is a cornerstone of their philosophy. They care for their bees with meticulous attention and passion, ensuring that their premium honey reflects this dedication.

The Importance of Bees in Our Ecosystem

Bees are essential to the ecological balance, pollinating around 80% of all cultivated and wild plants. They live on nectar, pollen, and honeydew, and through their foraging, they facilitate the growth of fruits, vegetables, and nuts. This intricate cycle underscores the importance of a healthy ecosystem for successful beekeeping.

Bee-Family’s Ethical Practices

Bee-Family’s beekeeping practices are uncompromising. They ensure the health and well-being of their bees by maintaining high standards and adhering to good beekeeping practices. They use natural materials for beehives and incorporate both traditional and innovative beekeeping systems to promote bee health. They prioritize the bees’ needs over honey production, ensuring that sufficient honey and pollen reserves are left for the bees.

Creating Biodiversity

Bee-Family places great importance on selecting natural habitats for their bee colonies, recognizing that a diverse range of nectar, pollen, and honeydew sources is crucial for many insect species, including bees and wild bees. These insects form the foundation for other animal species, contributing to biodiversity.
