The TGK Farms Initiative
​
A Different Way of Doing Things
Most nonprofit organizations rely on long-term sponsorships and ongoing fundraising. While these efforts are vital, they can leave the future of the children we serve vulnerable to shifts in the economy and global uncertainty. At TGK, we believe in creating a model that not only survives hard times—but thrives in them.
By investing in our land with sustainable, forward-thinking practices, we are securing the longevity of our mission. TGK Farms is more than a source of funding for scholarships—it’s a foundation for community growth, job creation, and environmental stewardship.
Our stingless bees are a cornerstone of this vision. They produce rare, medicinal honey that carries exceptional health benefits, while also pollinating our crops to enrich the soil and increase harvest yields. This harmony between agriculture and ecology strengthens both our community and the environment.
Your generous support allows us to plant more seeds—literally and figuratively—ensuring a lasting impact that extends far beyond one season. Together, we can cultivate opportunity, resilience, and a brighter future for children in Tanzania.

Help Us Build Our Farm!
We are on our way! Thanks to our generous donors, we have already raised enough money to purchase our farm in Tanzania!
Now we must build it, and we have many great seeds to plant! With your help, we can create a lasting legacy that will benefit many generations to come. And you'll be able to say you were part of it from the beginning!
We will be purchasing Stingless honey bees, coffee plants, baby goats, sunflower seeds, banana trees, hibiscus plants, guava trees and so much more. The goats will provide milk and the bees will provide us with the super-valuable stingless bee honey which will be used in medicine, food, skincare and more! Stingless Bee honey is considered "liquid gold" and has countless health benefits.

By helping us, you are enriching the land, supporting the environment and creating jobs in Tanzania, we are so very grateful for your contribution.
Stingless Bee Honey, Liquid Gold
Stingless bee honey is often called "liquid gold" due to its
rarity, high nutritional and medicinal value, and distinctive tangy flavor. Produced by small, stingless bees (meliponines) in tropical regions, this unique honey has been prized by indigenous cultures for centuries.
​
Why stingless bee honey is considered "liquid gold"
​
-
Rarity: Stingless bee colonies produce a very small amount of honey—often less than one kilogram per year, making it far more scarce and valuable than conventional honey.
​
-
Medicinal properties: It has been used for over 3,000 years in traditional medicine by ancient Mayans and other cultures. Research suggests it has numerous therapeutic properties, including:
-
Antimicrobial and antibacterial effects
-
Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties
-
Wound-healing capabilities
-
​
-
Unique flavor: The honey has a distinct taste profile that is more complex than standard honey, with notes of sweet, sour, and fruity flavors. The exact taste can vary depending on the local plants the bees forage on.
​
-
Unique composition: It has a higher water content and lower glycemic index than most honey varieties. It also contains propolis, which contributes additional medicinal benefits.
​
-
Sustainable harvesting: Beekeepers often practice traditional, sustainable methods to harvest the honey, which supports the conservation of the bees and their ecosystems.
