Nature’s Quiet Labor: Bee Pollinates Chamomile in Lebanese Spring Sunlight 🐝

Under the golden spring sun of Lebanon, a busy bee gently lands on a blooming chamomile flower — a quiet, mesmerizing moment that captures the magic of pollination and the delicate harmony of nature. 🌞🌸

This simple act is part of a much larger story: bees are among the world’s most important pollinators, supporting the growth of flowers, fruits, and crops. Without them, biodiversity would suffer, and food systems would collapse.

In Lebanon, traditional conservation practices like the Hima system — a community-led approach to managing natural resources — are helping protect vital habitats for pollinators and boosting local biodiversity. By safeguarding wildflowers, trees, and native ecosystems, the Hima model is keeping pollinators like bees safe and thriving.

🐝 Let this peaceful moment be a reminder of nature’s resilience — and the small creatures working behind the scenes to keep life blooming.

Al Hima Magazine 5th Issue

This edition of Al Hima magazine weaves together inspiring stories of nature conservation and community resilience, highlighting how Lebanon is being stitched back to life—one Hima at a time. The Society for the Protection of Nature in Lebanon (SPNL) continues its mission to preserve the country’s natural heritage by empowering local communities. A cornerstone of this effort is the BioConnect project, funded by the European Union, which has achieved three national firsts: Lebanon’s first natural park (Upper Matn), first geological park (Shouf-Jezzine), and first endowment Hima (Btekhnay).
