First honey harvest of the year at Porsche Leipzig

In April of this year, #porsche doubled its number of bee colonies from 25 to 50, meaning three million honey bees now live at the #leipzig site. The spring blossom honey called Turbienchen® is now available to purchase again in the #porsche #leipzig customer centre shop.

In Germany, bee populations have been at risk for decades. Due to their importance for biodiversity, bees are protected by the German law for nature conservation (BNatSchG) and the German ordinance for species protection (BArtSchV). In particular, there is a lack of suitable habitats for these creatures. “The natural landscape at #porsche #leipzig offers the ideal conditions for our honey bees. There is a diverse range of blossom available all year round – from willow and wild fruit to hawthorn”, says Gerd Rupp, Chairman of the Executive Board at #porsche #leipzig Gmbh.
