Community Bee Apiary
Many of the African poorest people live near rich natural resources, including precious tropical forests villages Where African Forest Timber harvest its lumber. African Forest Timber community development team is focused on putting smiles on the community where our timber come from. Beekeeping offers a wonderful opportunity for these people to create rural livelihoods, protecting and maintaining these crucial habitats.
We identify and articulate the crucial role of beekeepers working and living in tropical forests villages where we harvest our lumber. We advocate only for the use of local bee species or races, and always with local beekeeping skills and materials.
Using Every Scrap
At African Forest Timber Ltd, we work extremely hard to use every sawed lumber scrap and shaving left over as we create hives. We use these pieces to produce and distribute free bee hives to the village where we are currently harvesting timber. We are always working to complete any lumber contracts, in a way that utilizes every bit of the wood scraps.
The reason we use the woods scraps we do is because they are ideal materials for bees to thrive in and there free. Normally this lumber scraps are left to decay and rotting or decompose in the forest by other logging companies. These woods are light, durable, and they provide excellent insulation which reduces the strain put on bees to keep the hive at a constant temperature. Finally, since these are such long-lasting woods, community apiary owners won’t have to continually replace their hives.
