Michael Walsh is the urban beekeeper maintaining thriving apiaries on the rooftops of bustling central London. Though unconventional, Michael’s rooftop apiaries serve as vital biodiversity havens for the city’s bees.

Buzzing with intrigue, we joined Michael Walsh at one of his many apiaries nestled within the chaos of Canary Wharf to learn how the hives work as ecological hotspots in otherwise urban areas.

Beyond the environmental benefits, Michael shared how beekeeping grounds him in the present moment. The bees demand his full attention, allowing him to become completely focused and providing an escape from everyday life.

Like Michael, you can support biodiversity in your area. By keeping plant pots and window boxes, you can create havens not just for honeybees, but for all kinds of pollinators, helping to sustain a healthy ecosystem.
