Theresa J. Martin

Theresa Martin has achieved near perfect survival and high production in her six years as a beekeeper, with 20–25 colonies. Following the model of how bees survive in the wild, employing integrated pest management, and providing high support yet low intervention, she demonstrates that healthy, alive bees are more productive than sick or dead bees. Theresa is a Cornell Master Beekeeper, 2024 Kentucky State Beekeeper of the Year, Vice President of the Kentucky State Beekeepers Association, and President of the Whitley County Beekeepers Association. She worked at Fidelity Investments and Procter & Gamble in information technology and operations management.
