When it gets hot and humid, the bees leave the hive to keep it cool. They create a "beard" outside the hive. Super cool.
Drone Bees
Drone bees, or male bees. Drones live a rough life...they die after mating and are kicked out of the hive before winter since they don't do any "work."
Catching bees!
A beehive has swarmed and appeared on our tree branch. Here we are trying to catch the bees into one of our bee boxes.
Our beehives!
Some of our beehives -- all in our backyard. Some are small, some are big, some are temporary, some are permanent.

BEE Green!
We don't use fragrances, colours, preservatives, etc. Our products are made with as few ingredients as possible. We instead focus on using high quality ingredients.
Shipping things across the country can be expensive and inefficient. We encourage you to support your local beekeepers. Buy local honey! Eat local honey. It's good for you and the environment.
Thank you for coming to our shop! Our dad maintains beehives in our backyard....and we, with a little help from our parents, we sell the honey (summer and early fall - it sells out FAST), lip balms, soaps, and bee accessories. We go to fairs...do the packaging, the labelling, the cleaning. We appreciate your support as we grow from kidpreneurs to entrepreneurs.
