On his Youtube channel, you’ll find impressive and highly instructive videos on the management and destruction of hornet and wasp nests. You’ll also learn about the behavior and dangers of these insects. Etienne is not stingy with his advice on what to do when you discover a nest, or simply how to react to these sometimes aggressive little creatures.
The Platform was born out of two observations.
On the one hand, beekeepers were telling Sophie that they were having trouble selling their honey harvests. Then, on the other, Sophie’s friends who didn’t know any beekeepers near them, and who went to supermarkets or organic stores to buy their honey.
To overcome these two difficulties, the idea was simple:
Why not bring beekeepers and consumers together quickly and easily?
Since the launch of the Platform in August 2020, many connections have been made.
The community of beekeepers is growing by the week.
To keep up the momentum, Sophie works almost daily on the Plateforme du Miel.
Her aim is to help French beekeepers add value to their work, while creating a link with consumers.
