It takes about 200 days of work for the bees, which travel 40’000 kilometers and gather 800’000 flowers, to produce 1 kilo of honey. The passion and patience of the volunteers of the Rucher de Saint Prex, the beekeepers’ association of the Ferring Pharmaceutical Group, are matched only by their generosity.
Indeed, this corporate apiary, created in 2014, has a dual mission: Save the bees and support a charity. To do this, a chain of solidarity is in place. Fifteen volunteers from the Ferring Pharmaceutical Group take care of the 8 hives. They manage the entire process. First, they receive support from the company, which covers all costs. These volunteers are also supported by the employees who buy and donate 5 Chf more per jar of honey. On behalf of the children, the families and the OVA team, thank you all and congratulations for this exemplary commitment.
