Item Description

Many people now have bees, and some don't quite know how to deal with them.  Others want to know there is a reliable service to turn to before investing in a new hive.  And much of today's apiary practices are derived from the commercial pollinator/honey industry, which uses preventative pesticides and antibiotics that aren't appropriate for small-scale local beekeeping.   Bronx Bees has answers to any concerns regarding these fascinating creatures.  Whether you're considering where to locate hives arriving in the Spring, have an unhealthy hive you want to bring back, or anything in between, Bronx Bees will send a knowledgeable and friendly technician to your location to sort out any urban bee issues you are facing.

 

Bronx Bees Honey is raw, local and totally delicious.  Bronx Bees hives are located on the first residential green roof in the Bronx – in range of the NY Botanical Garden, Soundview Park, Brother Islands and other natural wonders of the Bronx.  Bronx Bees is a pilot project funded by Majora Carter Group to test the viability of a South Bronx apiary and the feasibility of creating a honey-based skin care product line inspired by Chicago’s Bee Line products.
