The Earth Laughs In Flowers

Did you know that native flower-producing and wild edible plants, along with bees, share an incredible, co-evolved relationship that sustains biodiversity and food webs? And not only for bees, for all pollinators. They provide the ultimate habitat for all wildlife, and they are the easiest plants to grow!

The Best Way to Find Yourself Is To Lose Yourself In The Service Of Others

You can never go wrong with doing what you love! It took us years to finally achieve one of our life goals: to create gardens with essential native plants, promote green corridors, reintroduce vegetation that serves as shelter and food source for pollinators such as bees, and restore the health of the ecosystem! Yes, all in the name of our beloved bees.

The Greatest Danger To Our Future Is Apathy

Everybody can find great comfort in getting involved with their community, and it could be as easy as growing a couple of plants to support local fauna and flora. The Community of Valencia has invested their efforts in the Green and Urban Biodiversity Plan for years now, and we are collaborating through our project of Interconnected Green Roofs!

Every Saint Has A Bee In His Halo

Valencia can trace its history with bees from thousand of years, and since these precious animals are the reason for all our efforts and ideas, we would like to invite you to read about life-saving facts about them. There are valid and extremely important reasons for how much we need them, and why we will not survive without them.

OUR MISSION

We want to be a platform bringing beekeepers, municipalities, and residents together to support pollinators (especially bees) by building green spaces, mini-habitats, and food stations throughout the Valencian Community. Bees are crucial for ecosystems, and they enable plants, including most food crops, to reproduce, which sustains biodiversity and food security for humans and wildlife.

Why do we need native and wild plants?

Help curb depopulation.

In The Spring, At The End Of The Day, You Should Smell Like Dirt

Playing with dirt can save your life, or at least improve it by 90%. It would mostly depend on you and the things you need to work on, but we (and scientists) are certain that if you were to interact more with soil and plants, many wonderful things could happen. It can also be one of the greatest gifts you could give to your kids.

There Is No Blue Without Yellow, And Without Orange

Orange trees might not seem like a big deal in general, but in Valencia, they are much more than a plant. They are part of its grand history, their art, and their economy. None of it would have been possible without the pollination rock stars like bees!

And All At Once, Summer Collapsed Into Fall

Autumn in Valencia is prettier than summer! Yes, hard to believe, but the weather is so calming and loving, unlike the hot season when you feel like jumping into any source of water around you, and avoid going out at any cost. For me, it is during the beginning of the Fall that I get to enjoy walking around Valencia much more. The one time of the year to look forward to, especially as a resident.

Music In The Soul Can Be Heard By The Universe

For us, creating this playlist is a way of telling the world that we have a project in the Valencian Community that supports bees, which are essential to our survival. Sweet and hard-working insects that travel long distances to find the nectar they need for their beehives, and in the process, support our way of life.

There May Be No Secrets In Small Towns, But There Are No Strangers Either

By creating small-scale bee-friendly areas, we aim to offer these incredible insects a greater amount of food sources throughout the year, but it can only be done if residents in municipalities follow the same practices, such as planting similar flora. But not having enough people to inhabit these areas could be a problem, so we are supporting the government’s initiatives to curb depopulation.

Friends Are God's Way Of Apologizing For Your Family

Living in the Caribbean is out of this world, with the food and its stunning views, every day feels like a gift. I have never seen prettier beaches, and they also have the best over-the-water restaurants I have ever been to! Las Sirenas and Whole in the Wall. It was the island that put my mind at peace due to my sister Wendy.

One Must Have Roots To Bloom, Sprout, Grow, And Branch Out

Leaving our country was difficult, and I wondered if the love we feel for our culture would stay with my kids, but I was determined to help them remember. Almost 10 years later, they still love and long for Guatemala, and I am so grateful. We will always be proud Guatemalans.

If Your Dreams Don’t Scare You, They Aren’t Big Enough

The last push. It suddenly hit us that we needed to leave the United States as soon as possible. We had no idea how, but we had two months to put everything together to move to Valencia. Were we going to make it? It was a daily thought that would cross my mind, but I kept pushing forward.
