Bees are essential workers in our food systems 🐝🌺

From pollinating crops to supporting biodiversity, healthy bee populations are deeply connected to resilient agriculture, thriving communities, and sustainable livelihoods.

Through the work of the Pacific Bee Sanctuary, CEO ...of @niuehoneycompany Richard Duncan, shares how beekeeping is creating opportunities across Pacific islands — generating income, strengthening local food systems, and helping communities build resilience for the future.

Investing in bees is investing in people, livelihoods, and a healthier planet. 🌍🍯

🫘 Chef Sanaa Abourezk has a philosophy for the planet - and it starts with beans and zero waste. 🫘♻️

Her method? Simple! Dry beans, a slow cooker, water, and a little patience. Cook a big batch, freeze in portions, and use them all week in soups, dips, salads, and mains.🍲
...
And when it comes to leftovers? She shares them with her staff. Nothing goes to waste! 🧑‍🍳

This is what sustainable cooking for people and the planet looks like in real life. Accessible, affordable, and deeply intentional.

✨ Save this post for @sanaacooks27 slow cooker method and start cooking beans this way.
