Rescuing Bees

Hi All

I've been getting some questions about rescuing bees, and what we do with them afterward.

Usually, bees are harmless especially if you just leave them alone. But that doesn't mean everyone wants them at their house. When someone has a swarm in their yard, in their eaves, water meters, or wherever, that's when we usually get the call for HELP! I HAVE BEES!!!!

That's when we show up to see just where the bees are, and if we can help you move them from your property. Usually, it can take a few days, but we get most swarms out. Especially if we get the call as soon as a swarm is noticed.

Here are some pictures of bees being rescued from from a storage center in Oceanside.



Next, if we're all lucky, we get to take the bees away!! Off they go to Vista where we keep our hives surrounded by orchards and nurseries. What more could a bee want? We don't just leave the bees there. We tend to them and take care of them to make sure they are healthy and happy as can bee? ;-)

New Season!!




Hello honey lovers,

We have some news from Three bees honey!

We will be harvesting any day now, and we can't wait to get back to the farmer's market! We will be emailing all of you with a specific date when we return.

Next, joining our comb, and 'regular' honey will be CREAMED HONEY!!! We know there are some of you that only eat creamed honey, so be on the look out.

Thank you so very much for supporting our rescued bee efforts. We look forward to having another great year!
