First founded in Germany by two like-minded healthy living enthusiasts, Hexapi Honey now encompasses over 50 small artisanal beekeeping producers across the country, whose busy bees produce a staggering 35 unique strains of the purest raw honeys. Much like the concept of ‘terroir’ in wine, each honey draws strongly from its rich local flora and fauna, producing a completely unique taste
Not only are these products completely home-grown, but its beekeepers are fully dedicated to preserving its “100% natural, raw, pure &amp; untreated – Straight from the comb” motto. Blending, infusing, colourising and pasteurisation have all been completely removed from the manufacturing process.
The results are rich golden honeys packed to the brim with nutritional enzymes, vitamins, amino acids, anti-oxidants and more! Keen to try Hexapi Honey out? Why not start with some of their best-selling products below?

Food
As consumerism feeds our need for food, millions of people live in poverty. Local food bank, <a href="http://www.feedinghk.org/">Feeding Hong Kong</a> bridges the gap by connecting food companies and charities to redistribute excess food from where it is plentiful, to where there is need.
Preventing food waste can limit the amount of landfill waste, in turn, reducing the production of methane, a major contributor of global warming. Save and eat leftovers, store food in the right places, donate to food banks and treat expiration and sell-by dates as guidelines.

Clothing
Reassess your wardrobe and think twice before shopping. Recycle your old clothes by donating or swapping them for new pieces from charity stores such as the <a href="http://www.salvationarmy.org.hk/en">Hong Kong Salvation Army</a> or local business <a href="http://www.facebook.com/meegeeco/">Mee &amp; Gee</a>.
Opt for sustainable fashion with local brands such as <a href="http://www.thecloseteur.com/">The Closeteur</a>, an online platform for fashionistas to buy, sell and support pre-loved fashion. &nbsp;<a href="http://www.aboynamedsue.co/">A Boy Named Sue</a> brings honesty and integrity back to fashion with brands that have a people-driven cause and collaborations with local independent designers who encourage the use of eco-friendly practices and sustainable materials.

Living
Turn off your electrical appliances when not in use and recycle used paper, plastic, metals and batteries to reduce waste to landfill at one of many <a href="http://www.wastereduction.gov.hk/en/community/crn_outlet.htm">collection outlets</a> across the vicinity.
Buy second-hand, local or handmade products from independent local shops rather than chains to reduce transportation costs, generic waste and to support the local community. <a href="http://www.apps2.wwf.org.hk/pandashop/">Panda Shop</a>’s eco-friendly products support WWF-Hong Kong’s ongoing conservation and education works.
Take your own reusable bag when shopping and stay away from plastic bags. Re-use any packaging materials such as paper bags, plastic boxes, paper and ribbon. <a href="http://www.plasticfreehk.com/blogs/lifestyle">Plastic-free HK</a> sells eco-friendly products that support the reduction of plastic waste.

Dining 
Eat at restaurants that promote farm-to-table dining, the reduction of food waste and the cultivation of mindful practices. <a href="http://www.locofama.com/">Locofama</a> and <a href="http://www.sohofama.com/">Sohofama</a> are examples of local businesses dedicated to working closely with Hong Kong’s farms to provide organic fruits and vegetables, grown without the use of pesticides. &nbsp;
Transport 
Walk or take public transport as ways to reduce carbon emission. Use bicycles to stay in shape and also to reduce pollution.
The great news is that anyone can do it. By making better choices in our daily lives, we can reduce our harmful impact on the environment. &nbsp;After all, we only have one planet. &nbsp;
