Tours run seasonally, May through September, weather permitting

Full suit. Real hive. No glass in between.

Come open a hive with us.

Every tour is led by one of us, in a full bee suit, at our own hives in Meredith. You'll see frames pulled, watch the bees work, and understand exactly where the honey in the jar comes from.

01

Suit up. We provide a full bee suit and gloves in your size — no experience or gear needed.

02

Open a hive. We smoke and open a real working hive, pull a frame, and walk through what you're seeing.

03

Taste the harvest. Every visit ends with a taste of that day's honey, straight off the comb.
