Marta Soltyszewska, a Cornell-certified Master Beekeeper, is a dedicated backyard beekeeper. She maintains around seven honey bee colonies, housed in a combination of Langstroth and hybrid AZ Slovenian/Langstroth hives.

Her secondary aim is to disseminate beekeeping expertise and encourage new generations to take up this enriching hobby, thereby aiding pollinators at large. With a Master Beekeeping certification and an academic background in biology and teaching, including a Master of Science degree from Poland and experience teaching Anatomy and Anthropology at a Polish university, Marta aspires to mentor budding beekeepers.
