The BeeGuy

Founder of the only native wild bee sanctuary on the planet – turning a traditional Irish farm into a beacon of light and advocacy for saving endangered native wild bees and in doing so all creatures. We take the science and make it accessible to all. We take the lies (keeping honey bees isn’t any part of the solution) and replace them with truth and inspire positive action worldwide. The little farm that cared and dared!

The Bee Sanctuary of Ireland is the only dedicated native wild bee sanctuary on the planet. No hives. No honey. Just Wild! The only certified vegan organic land in the country. 55 acres – the size of 31 football pitches – of mixed habitat which we have been returning to nature since 2012. Nestled in the foothills of the Wicklow mountains we are a pause in the chaos of modern life. A not for profit social enterprise we advocate for and educate about our endangered wild bee populations and are real life real time proof of the simple measures we can all take to address this serious issue. When it comes to bees, nature and the planet it’s time to start giving and stop taking. Here on THE BEE SANCTUARY OF IRELAND we give everything. We’re all in.

We talk about bees, nature and the climate and nature crises we all face – vegan and non vegan. Our story since we bought the farm over a decade ago and our journey to establishing ourselves as the first and only true native wild bee sanctuary on the planet provides honest abrupt insights into a broken system, inspiration to do better and solutions towards a gentler way of existing on this planet that might just give us a shot at a future worth existing in.
