It is the only dedicated native wild bee sanctuary on the planet. It’s not a honey-creating venture; it exists solely as a beacon of light for the protection of our precious native wild bees.

Preserving the Wild, Igniting Change:

At the Bee Sanctuary of Ireland, the care of bees goes much further than mere conservation.

Everywhere there is a sense of our deep connection with the wild; the sanctuary embraces every bee’s inherent value and recognizes its vital role in our delicate ecosystems. This sanctuary is a resolute stand against the looming threat of extinction faced by bees and their fellow pollinators. Spanning an impressive 55 acres of vegan organic land, it offers a lifeline for these essential creatures, nurturing them and providing a safe haven.

 A Family United in Purpose:

The driving force behind this extraordinary sanctuary is a family of six. They are not scientists or experts, but rather ordinary people who, a decade ago, made a life-changing decision to redirect the course of their farming practices.

Guided by their deep reverence for nature and an unwavering dedication to future generations, this family became reluctant activists, propelled by the burning desire to create a better world for their children. Their genuine passion for action and their unwavering commitment to protecting the planet have transformed the Bee Sanctuary of Ireland into a true force to be reckoned with.

Nature Flourishes:

As you step onto the sanctuary’s sacred grounds, a world of wonder unfolds before your eyes. Vast fields of wildflower meadows, ablaze with vibrant blooms, hum with the industrious activity of bees and dance with the grace of butterflies.

The landscape springs to life with diverse habitats, from untouched wetland areas brimming with frogs, newts, and waterbirds, to sprawling hedgerows that offer a sanctuary for a rich tapestry of wildlife. This extraordinary oasis is a living testament to the power of harmonizing with nature, allowing it to flourish on its own terms.
