Betterbee is reaching out into the community and beyond with a project we call Hives for Heifer.  This January high school students in a nearby school will design and paint 16 bee hives in different styles and themes. Betterbee is providing the woodenware and the students will be donating their time and talents. Stay tuned for an online auction in February when the winning bidders will gain stylish boxes for their apiary and Heifer International will receive the proceeds of the auction. Betterbee is excited to reach out to young people and introduce them to the world of honeybees as well as have them participate in a worthy cause.  For more information about Heifer Project and their bee program in developing countries see https://secure1.heifer.org/gift-catalog/honeybees.html
