Besides the honey bee, there are hundreds of other bee species. These bees are very important in the pollination of flowers and plants. Whether you have wild plants, food crops, fruit trees or ornamental plants in the garden, 80% of these rely on insects for their fruit and seed formation. Many species are endangered due to the decline in flora and nesting facilities. This mason bee house is equipped with bamboo straws with different diameters so that various types of wild bees van nest here. A female bee makes several cells in a bamboo straw containing an egg and some pollen and nectar for the larva. Hang this bee house in a sunny, south-facing spot.

– 15 mm thick walls which provide perfect isolation
– Sloping roof, the water will flow off
– Overhanging roof which protects from wind and rain

Measurements: 6.1×6.3×8.7, 3.00 lbs

the buzz from our customers

our mission

My beekeeping journey began over 12 years ago with my oldest daughter begging for a dog, which led us to getting baby chickens instead, then honey bees were added to our urban backyard farm and the rest is history.

We're urban NYC beekeepers with a mission to help save the bees and other pollinators. Bees have been declining at an alarming rate which can impact the global food supply as bees are essential in pollination.

Our honey is pure and raw and sourced from either our own local hives or small apiaries, like us, from around the country. We believe in sustainable beekeeping, supporting small local beekeepers who in turn work with small local family farms to help pollinate their crops and bring you real, delicious honey.

REAL BEEKEEPERS. REAL HONEY. TASTE THE DIFFERENCE.
