A Short History of Beekeeping

Video Description

It’s certainly not forgotten history that bees play a vital role in the ecosystem and are a key to pollinating plants all over the world. Lesser known is the deep history between humans and bees that is perhaps as old as any relationship between humans and other species. May 20th is World Bee Day, a day dedicated to acknowledging the role of bees and other pollinators in the global environment, and their importance to human agriculture.
