Hummm

Bees have long been symbols for accomplishing the impossible. For a long time scientists were unable to determine how bees were able to fly. Aerodynamically, the body was too large for the wings. It has only been in more recent times that science has determined that bees move their wings at such a high rate of speed that it makes flight possible. The bee is a reminder to extract the honey of life, and that no matter how great the dream there is promise of fulfillment if we pursue it.

There is inspiration that arises in being able to see the exceptional details in the world immediately around us. And from those details, recognizing the macrocosm contained within a single living cell.Hummm reflects the inherent magic, wisdom, and inspiration of bees.

Bees are the capstone of our ecologies, pollinating plants we need to sustain our lives. Not only providing nourishing products like honey, beeswax, propolis, and royal jelly, bees also prey on other insects, keeping the insect population in balance. Currently we are witnessing an unprecedented
loss in the bee population of the planet.
