Founded by Petar Petrov, Stefan Zlatev and Trifon Michailov 2014 in Bulgaria. The group has examined the roots of traditional beekeeping and found that individual farms tended to keep only a few hives each—in contrast with today's commercial beekeeping model, in which a single apiary consists of hundreds of hives. The founders believe that this practice is the cause of the pollinator decline. The IHAB was created to imitate the old beekeeping model and allow a more even distribution of bees.

History

In 2013, IHAB introduced their first development of a top bar hive. The product was designed to make it easier and more convenient for an average person to raise bees. The top bar hive has the convenience of being usable in backyards or on city terraces.

In 2015, IHAB, Norwegian urban beekeeping group ByBi, and New York City Beekeepers Association set up the first intercontinental hobby beekeepers' network.

gollark: I really wouldn't expect that to work portably.
gollark: Also the standard for 12V-only power supplies.
gollark: <@273751268244193281> There are PicoPSU thingies which just convert 12V input to the other voltages a computer needs, but they are probably too low-power for high-end computers.
