1st Bee garden workshop in ORchard road. on 6,7, and 8 Dec 2019
We have just held our first Bee garden Workshop event at Temasek Shophouse. The very first Bee garden developed at the heart of Singapore, Orchard Road.
It is an experimental collaboration for Nutrinest with Temasek Trust. It is also our third Bee garden in Singapore. The objective of this garden is to share the important of our local honeybee and the possibility to have urban beekeeping for conservation.
More than one hundred participants had participated on that day. Many participants tried some honey produced by our local honeybees, make their own Honey Ice Cream and lip Balm using the 100% Beeswax that we extracted from our unwanted honeycomb. Some participant also got to experience honey extraction from the beehive in the garden and tasted them. Many kids also enjoyed feeding some honey to the bees in the garden with their bare hands!
I can see a huge possibility to cohabit and share our space with the local honeybees. It is not necessary to exterminate any beehive found in your area as we can always humanely manage the wild bees by rehome them to a suitable location.
I hope with more of such event will change people's mindset about bees and welcome the idea of sharing space with them. We need our local honeybees to help us in keeping our ecosystem healthy as all living things benefit from what the bees have been contributing to all.
Above is the shot video clip of the event on that day. Hope you will enjoy it!

2nd World Bee Day on 20th May 2019
This year the participants not only get to learn about the types of local honey, they also got the chance to make their own lip balm using the 100% Beeswax extract from the unwanted comb that I have. One of the invited guest also share about their experience in co-existing with their bees. Many had decorated their adopted beehive and my task is to fill up all these beehives with colonies of bees.
One of the last year adopted beehive was housing a colony of Trigona that was rehomed from Mandai Zoo area. This colony is now residence at the rooftop of Temasek Shophouse. Nutrinest is collaborating with Temasek Trust in experimenting urban rooftop beekeeping in urban environment, such as Orchard, a very dense environment.
Currently Nutrinest is managing 3 bee gardens within Singapore, in the north, center and west part of Singapore. I hope I will be able to save as many bees from the current pest control exterminating method. I hope more and more people will support my bee conservation work and make Singapore, a city in the garden that is also truely bee friendly.

Honey Harvesting demo
The first Honey harvesting demonstration with exclusive participants,. They get to see how I harvest honey from the beehive and also tasted some of the harvested honey. it was their first time harvesting and tasting of such freshly harvest honey right in Singapore. They are probably the only few had such memorable experience. Hope to conduct such workshop more often in the future.
Singapore 1st world Bee Day celebration on 20th May 2018
The first Singapore World Bee Day, was held on 20 May 2018, Nutrinest had joined the world beekeeping association in celebrating this meaningful event by organised a bee garden tour on that day. The 200 seats were all taken up few days before the actual event. There were many more want to enrol but have to reject them as I need to make sure the crowd was within controllable size with limited helpers.
The participants were requested to bring their own cutlery as we wanted to stop using one time use plastic to help keep our environment as green as possible. We have fresh apple, orange and banana donated from backer. foods and drinks. Towards the end all the organic waste were return into our Black SoldierFfly and Vermi compost bin. So that we have zero food waste.
Beside the bee garden tour to get a close encounter with our different local bees, that are Apis Cerana, Apis Florea, Apis Andreniformis, and Trigona. Participants also get to participate in beehive creation, Bee games that impart bee knowledge, photo taking lots of bee activities in the garden, and also adopting beehives.
Finally, we took some group photo and end the celebration. I hope everyone who came for the event would find the day well spend.
Thank you for all the event backers, without your support the event would not be possible. Below are some of the photos taken by my friend You Jin and Bazail.
