News & Events

2nd World Bee Day 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.

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.
