Welcome to

Sustainable Honeybee Program, Inc.

Building Better Bees

Sustainable Honeybee Program, Inc. depends on volunteers to help us with all the various work, beekeeping and otherwise, that is involved in our operations. Unlike traditional queen sources we do not have pollination or honey sales income to support our goals.

We have opportunities in helping directly with the bees which requires some beekeeping experience, as well as general maintenance, building equipment as well as equipment repair and restoration.

For more information on how and when to volunteer:

Please email volunteers@sustainablebees.org
