“Mercy Montessori beekeeping aims to educate our community about bees, beekeeping, educating the consumer on the importance of honey and stewardship of the environment. Our older students are dedicated to producing honey and hive products while learning about commerce in society through a student-run business. While our younger students try to learn more about the role of a bee and what they will participate in as a Bee Team member in the Jr. High.”- Josie M. Ruther (1st Bee Manager)
