Local Honey Wishaw

Plan Bee is a company based in Lanarkshire, Scotland, founded by Warren Bader, with a mission to address the decline in honeybee populations. The company offers a hive hire service for both individuals and businesses, placing hives on clients' land to help pollinate crops, surrounding plant life, and forestry. Plan Bee also supports eco-sustainability projects for companies looking to demonstrate environmental responsibility. The service is fully managed: Plan Bee provides the hives and bees, and professional beekeepers tend them at regular intervals. Clients can choose how involved they wish to be in the process. Customers receive a share of the honey produced by their hired hives, and that honey can be branded with the client's company name for sale or gifting purposes. The company positions itself as a solution to the dramatic decline in honeybee numbers, which have reportedly halved in recent decades due to climate change and poor pesticide management.
