A table of bee resilience source notes, sample jars, hive frame photos and a field notebook

Where did this map come from?

This site is a public framing pass based on the local content reference, current official source checks and generated hero imagery. It is designed to be useful and correctable, not final.

Local source file

The seed document stays in the repo.

The content map came from content reference.txt in this repository. The site rewrites that material into visitor-facing pages with a softer, question-led public voice.

Public boundary: this is not legal advice, biosecurity advice, treatment advice, Traditional Custodian permission, university endorsement or a claim that a lab already exists. It is a carefully hedged proposal map for a possible co-op stewardship model.

Official checks

Links checked for the public framing.

These were used to keep the site careful around varroa, registration, biosecurity, permits, biodiscovery and higher education status. Check them again before acting because rules and programs can change.

Image notes

Custom hero images were generated for each page.

The images are custom generated editorial-style scenes for this site. They are visual metaphors for the proposal, not evidence that the pictured people, labs or locations exist exactly as shown.
