## Elevator Pitch
We are an initiative that works with native bees in my region. We care for them because they pollinate my crops. Without them, there is no life. We work to raise environmental awareness.
We work with students in my community.

## Climate Problem
One of the problems is climate change and the excessive use of plastic.

## Solution
One solution 
is to use glass jars for bottling, since those jars can be reused. Plastic bottles, on the other hand, are only used once.
Planting trees and flowers native to my country to help the environment.

## Revenue Model
Honey for sale 
Beeswax for sale 
Tours of the apiaries

## Target Market
My target market is the people in my community. I sell online.

## Social Impact
Migrants, Refugees - Asylum-seekers and Internally Displaced People, People Living in Extreme Poverty, Women, LGBTQI+ People

## Demand Evidence
Because there is such high demand for my honey, I'm getting more and more orders every day.

## Competitors
I have a lot of competitors, but I learn from them every day to improve my products.

## Founder Expertise
My experience caring for bees: fighting for their conservation and reducing the use of chemicals.

## External Support
The raw materials I used were my own; I did not receive any assistance from any institution.
