Exploring Our Hives, One Frame at a Time

Suit Up

We’ll fit you with a professional beekeeping suit that keeps you protected while giving you the freedom to move, observe, and confidently immerse yourself in our apiary.

Meet the Bees

At the hives, you’ll see bees gathering nectar, nurturing the young, and sustaining the colony as our beekeepers highlight the queen, workers, and drones and explain the role each plays in hive life.
