HONEY WITH HEART BEES FOR DEVELOPMENT.
STORIES FROM IDES KAYESA AND BELITA MAKHUWIRA.
Ides Kayesa, a talented female beekeeper from Ching’amba, Ntchisi district. “I started beekeeping in 2019 with only three Langstroth beehives, beekeeping has been a game changer for me and my community.” I managed to save MWK90,000 (USD50) from honey sales and bought 20kg of soya beans seed and one bag of fertiliser. My vision is to increase honey production by adding more beehives and build a better house for my family.
My name is Belita Makhuwira from Chilooko, Ntchisi district, the coming of African Parks with beekeeping support is a blessing to my family and entire community. I started beekeeping enterprise in 2019, and started saving money to village bank in 2023 MWK 12,600 (USD7). After earning interests I bought a kid goat at MWK27,000 (USD15). I continued saving from beekeeping enterprise and now I have MWK100,800 (USD56) in my village bank. My dream is to build good house by increasing my production with more hives. Thank you, African Parks, for your support.
