Frequently Asked Questions
What areas do you serve?
We primarily serve San Jose's East Hills region and surrounding areas including Alum Rock, Evergreen, and Berryessa. For inquiries outside this service area, please contact us directly.
How does hive hosting work?
We place a professionally managed beehive on your property and handle all maintenance. You provide the space, and we take care of the bees. Hosts receive a share of honey from their hive and contribute to local pollinator populations.
Is beekeeping safe for my family/pets/neighbors?
With proper placement and professional management, beehives pose minimal risk. We carefully assess each location, considering proximity to high-traffic areas, and provide detailed safety information. Most people can peacefully coexist with bees when the hive is properly managed.
What if I discover a swarm of bees?
Contact us immediately through our swarm reporting form or emergency line. Swarms are typically docile and temporary. We'll respond quickly to safely collect and rehome the bees.
