The solution is an ‘outgrower’ scheme where rural and small scale farmers are trained in beekeeping, sustainable forest use, ecosystems restorations and are gifted with ZamHive beehives and ZamBuzz devices to provide an alternative source of income to charcoal production, tree logging and increase productivity. Our project called OutGrow It (Pamodzi), is a rural livelihood improvement project that is offering positive social economic impact to the lives of rural and small scale farming communities by engaging them to produce honey, wax, bees venom and value added products for local and export markets, this gives them tangible income generating opportunities which contributes to lifting them out of poverty and reduces the alarming rates of deforestation which helps to build climate resilient ecosystems.
