Beekeepers For Veterans was born in our North Texas backyard. Our son returned home after serving his country to start his college career. It was my first year of beekeeping and we were all fascinated. However, I would catch my son on many occasions sitting on a 5-gallon bucket watching the bees return from foraging. It was then I realized that we could help Veterans help the world.
While doing research about therapy and bees, I came across an article about the Veterans Affairs alternative farming for bees. The VA was doing a study about PTSD and TBI and how beekeeping could be therapeutic. Light bulb moment verified! I was on to something.
