Getting to Know Stingless Bees

Native bees are the silent protagonists of the Atlantic Forest. Among them, the yellow uruçu bee—celebrated by Alceu Valença in his song “Mel de Uruçu”—takes the spotlight in this experience.

In this activity, you’ll learn about the vital role of these bees in pollination, their connection with biodiversity, and, as a highlight, you’ll extract honey directly from the beekeeping boxes, experiencing one of the purest flavors of the forest. It’s an educational, sensory, and delightful activity for all ages.
