Our Apiaries
Local HoneyOur hives are located in Belmont & Lexington, MA
In order for our bees to have more room to roam, we are adding new locations with fewer hives in each location. They need more local space and while all the hives are within 20 minutes of our headquarters so we can keep a careful eye on them, we also want them to be able to take advantage of farms, meadows, and water sources nearby in order to strengthen the hives, produce more brood, and put away more of their delicious honey.
Bees are flying, lots of typical spring and summer activity – the bees are very active, working hard
Inspecting our bees is something that is done ever 2 weeks in the warmer weather to see how the hive is doing.
In the fall, we group the hives together to help them keep warm, and then add some insulation for the winter
A look at the Rock Meadow hives…lots of heat signatures suggesting healthy hives – Spring is coming!
Even better IR image of two hives in Rock Meadow last fall…those hives are very healthy, see all the heat?
A swarm of bees up in a tree that we recovered last year. When it gets warm, the bees will swarm. It’s a natural process that bees go through when the hive gets too large, half of the hive leaves with the queen to find a new home – while the remaining half create a new queen
