A project born in Pontal do Sul to protect and value Brazil’s native stingless bees (meliponines), combining sustainable beekeeping, local culture, and environmental education.
Native Bee Honey vs. Regular Honey — Scientific Comparison

Below is a concise, science-based comparison with regular honey from the European bee (Apis mellifera).
