The "Bee Our Future" Story
Curated by Verl Johnson | Inspired by Oronde McNish
At Makabee Enterprise, we believe that beekeeping is a bridge between generations. While our 50-year legacy in St. Thomas is rooted in the soil, our vision for the future is global. This is the inspiration behind our "Bee Our Future" merchandise.
The design—featuring a rising sun over the palms with the honeybee front and center—represents the dawn of a new era in conservation. We created this line to give our supporters a way to carry the message of pesticide-free living and pollinator protection wherever they go.
Every purchase of our merchandise helps us continue our work at Rockbrook, documenting the expertise of Oronde McNish and expanding our organic seedling nursery for the next generation of Jamaican farmers.
