Hosting a hive is a beautiful, low-effort way to support your neighborhood’s ecosystem.

Our signature private beekeeping monthly service ensures your bees stay healthy, your garden benefits from increased pollination, and your hive moves through the seasons exactly as it should.

And yes — you’ll get to enjoy your own raw, local honey when harvest season arrives.

We bring a premium, detail-oriented approach to every hive we manage, shaped by experience across Eastside neighborhoods and private estates throughout Los Angeles.

  • A full-service beekeeping experience for homeowners who want thriving hives without the responsibility of hands-on management. We handle installation, seasonal care, and ongoing support so your bees—and your ecosystem—flourish year-round.

    Monthly Investment:

    • $365/month for one hive. Additional hives are +$100/month per hive.

    • Please Note: This rate will increase to $485/month for one hive once Founding Member spots are filled. Early members receive $1,440/year in savings, locked in for all future annual renewals.

    • Hive Installation — $715 per hive

      (Bees, equipment, and professional setup)

    Commitment:

    What’s Included:

    • High Season Care: 2–4 visits per month

    • Low Season Care: 1 visit per month

    • Honey Harvest: Typically 1–2 harvests per year; average yield is 5–7 gallons per hive per harvest, depending on seasonal conditions; includes extracting, processing, and jarring honey

    Important Notes:

    • While we take every precaution to maintain hive health, bees are living organisms and may be affected by disease or pests. If a hive fails under our care, we will replace it at no additional cost.

    • If conditions do not allow for a honey harvest in a given season, you’ll receive an 8oz jar of honey from our own Eastside apiaries. Bee welfare always comes first—especially heading into winter.
