Understanding the importance of bees and helping them thrive

Golfclub Capelle

Netherlands

Written by: Margot van der Haagen

The number of beehives on the golf course of Golfclub Capelle has been expanded to 5; the beekeepers harvested the first honey in mid-May in 2022. The honey is sold (at cost price) at the reception of the golf club.

Bees are useful and an essential link in nature, many species play an important role in the pollination of wild plants and economically important agricultural and horticultural crops. Others are known as "biological controllers" and play a unique role in maintaining fragile, natural balances. When there are not enough bees to pollinate our crops, species will die out.
