Join our "Adopt a Hive" program with your team and… “Bee-come a Hero” for bees and the environment.

Why Adopt a Hive?

What if every business were not only limited to business goals but also broadened its vision to environmental issues and needs as well?

The ‘Adopt a Hive’ program is a pioneering initiative by ‘Oros Machaira,’ which offers your company a unique opportunity to directly contribute to the well-being of our planet and to engage in team-building activities that foster the spirit of teamwork among your team members.

With every hive you adopt, you are actively contributing to saving the bee population and leading our planet closer to a greener future.

You also give your team the opportunity to experience a unique team connection and enrich their knowledge through this program.

What does the package include?

Adoption of a Hive: The first step of this wonderful journey is adopting a hive, which we will maintain in your company’s name.

First Visit
(April-August):

Maximum number of participants: 25 people

Educational Tour and Introduction to the World of Bees
Team members will dress as beekeepers, visit the hives, and observe the bee society up close under the guidance of our experienced beekeepers and the Oros Machaira team.

This is followed by an educational tour of our facilities and a seminar where participants will learn fascinating facts about bees and their essential role in our ecosystem.

Quiz Game and Small Surprises
During the visit, participants will take part in a fun knowledge quiz, and the winner will receive a small gift from our shop.

Honey Tasting and Bottling Observation

The group will also have the chance to observe the live honey bottling process and enjoy a unique tasting session, sampling fresh honey and authentic hive products.

Hive Painting
The team will participate in a hands-on experience by painting the hive they will adopt in the company’s colors.

This activity not only gives the hive your corporate identity but also strengthens team spirit among your employees.

Second Visit
(June-October):

Maximum number of participants: 25 people

The second group of your company will also have the opportunity to experience the “Adopt a Hive” program, participating in almost all of the activities from the first visit except for the hive painting.

Highlight of the Second Visit

Exclusive Corporate Gift!

Your company will receive approximately 20 kilograms of honey per hive, packaged in 250-gram jars, as a special gift for your employees or clients.

This sweet gift is a meaningful reminder of your contribution to the environment.

The hive you adopt will be maintained by our experienced beekeepers in the name of your company. Our team will keep you updated on the real status of your hive through regular reports and videos.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to have any beekeeping knowledge to participate in the program?

No, the hive is fully managed by our team and expert beekeepers.

Can I participate if I do not own a business?

Yes, there are options available for individuals as well.

Where are the hives located?

The hives are hosted in controlled natural areas within the premises of Oros Machaira.

How long does hive adoption last?

Each adoption lasts for one year, with the option to renew.

Goal

Our goal through the ‘Adopt a Hive’ program is to adopt 200 hives, thus contributing to the growth and preservation of 6,000,000 bees.

Why does it matter?

This effort is not just about conservation.

This has a truly positive impact on our planet and enhances the biodiversity that sustains it.

Bees are essential to our ecosystem and are responsible for pollinating the majority of plants, including those vital to food production. By adopting a hive, your company plays a direct role in supporting these invaluable pollinators, ensuring their survival and continued benefit to our natural world.

Join us today and Bee-come Heroes by participating in the “Adopt a Hive” program.

Nature’s Unsung Heroes!

Bees do more than just produce honey. They are crucial to maintaining the balance of our environment and are an integral part of natural habitats.
