Why Beekon? Because...
BEE-COME INVOLVED:
Why Beekon? Because...
A new infrastructure layer for flood-prone agriculture that preserves honey, protects colonies, and maintains pollination services in crisis.
Flooding, hurricanes, flash floods, monsoons, storm surges, and river overflows are increasingly harming food-producing regions. In single events, tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of hives can be destroyed, along with the pollination infrastructure they provide.
Beekon's patented buoyant, flood-resistant beehive system protects colonies, honey production, and pollination services in flood-exposed agricultural regions. It is engineered to withstand extreme flood events, bolstering the resilience of bee populations while safeguarding the agricultural infrastructure of pollination. Designed with sustainability and adaptability in mind, it addresses a critical gap in modern apiculture as extreme weather threatens hives globally.
Easy installation in an anchored location.
Made from buoyant, naval-grade fully recyclable HDPE.
Scales to forecasted flood levels and water table depths.
Withstands aggressive water currents and debris.
Enables pollination in floodplains, wetlands, mangroves, and more.
Easily adoptable and self-draining, with automatic deployment.
With over $308 million in beehive losses per year in the U.S. alone, and global flood events increasing at unprecedented rates, it is time to float like a bee. US Patent US20240334913A1.
