For hosts who want bees on their land — without becoming beekeepers.
The easy way in. One managed honeybee hive on your property, professionally cared for on a four-week cycle. No suit-up required, ever.
What’s included:
✓ One managed honeybee hive on your property
✓ Inspections every 4 weeks (alternating internal & external)
✓ Quarterly mite count and colony health report
✓ Monthly Hive Notes newsletter
✓ Santa Clara County planting calendar
✓ 2 jars of raw honey at end of harvest
✓ Annual Pollinator Partner certificate and window decal
✓ Hive Survival Insurance included
What you handle: keep the hive area accessible and report anything unusual. That’s it.
Every four weeks, Andrew visits the property. Visits alternate between two types:
Internal inspection (visits 1, 3, 5…): the hive is opened, frames are pulled, the queen is sighted, brood is checked, mites are measured, treatments applied if needed. 30–45 minutes.
External assessment (visits 2, 4, 6…): the hive stays closed. Flight activity is checked, the hive is hefted for weight, the mite-drop board is inspected, structural condition is confirmed. 15 minutes.
Result: one full internal inspection every 8 weeks plus an external safety check on the off-week.
Need more than one hive? Additional hives are billed per month: +$25 for Pollinator Partner, +$50 for Hive Steward, +$100 for Estate Apiary (third hive and beyond). We discuss exact placement during your free property walk.
