Our Story
Zambia is a country of pure beauty, peaceful people and great promise; however, poverty is also prevalent.
Ecobee’s ethos is to empower the people to earn a sustainable living, working with nature rather than against it.

Poaching of Wildlife
Poaching is rife in Zambia. Not done out of free will, as it is an extremely dangerous endeavour and leaves many families without their bread winner to support them. Beekeeping amongst other incentives gives these people a viable safe alternative to poaching.

Deforestation
This is mainly due to agricultural expansion and charcoal production.
We strive to not only educate on the environmental impact this is already having, but to provide an alternative source of income
