Whether you’re passionate about saving pollinators, supporting smallholder farmers, or helping restore ecosystems across Kenya, our adoption packages give you a chance to sponsor real impact. Pick from three exciting tiers and make a lasting difference in someone’s life — and in the life of 60,000 buzzing friends!
________________

🐝 Tier 1: Adopt 1 Hive – Tier one Package
$150 USD | Ksh 19,500
Make 60,000 buzzing friends and become a “Bee Buddy”! When you adopt one hive, you sponsor a modern Langstroth hive and basic beekeeping tools for a rural farmer in Kenya. Your contribution supports sustainable income generation and boosts local honey production — all while protecting vital pollinators.

Your Package Includes:
* A personalized adoption certificate with your name (or gift recipient’s name).
* A digital photo of your adopted hive, placed in one of our community apiaries.
* 2 trees planted in your name around the apiary, with GPS tracking. This is in line to our policy for every beehive sold, a tree is planted to conserve nature
* One jar of 500g raw Yatta Honey, harvested from your adopted hive (delivered annually).
* A heartfelt thank you letter from the Yatta Beekeepers team and the supported farmer.
This package makes a perfect birthday, graduation, or Earth Day gift — one hive, one farmer, endless impact.
