Colony Care
Guidance, inspection and hands on support for your colonies
What we learn in our own forest, we share with people who keep bees or want to start. Every service follows our code of ethics: bees first, and we only take on what we can do well.
How pricing works
Every apiary is different, so every quote is too. The price depends on the support you need, the number of colonies and where you are. Please fill in the questionnaire here to tell us more about your needs, or write to us at doctorcolmena@apiastudio.com with what you need and where you are, and we will send you a quote.
Ask us online
Something looks wrong with your colony, or you are not sure what you are seeing? Send us photos or a video and we will talk it through with you on a call, and tell you what we would check next
Start your own colonies
Thinking about keeping bees? We help you decide whether your land, time and budget are ready, choose where your colonies should go, what equipment you need and what the first year looks like, and connect you with trusted suppliers.
Colony check
We visit your apiary, inspect each colony with you, and leave you a written record of what we saw and what we recommend.
Let us keep them
Want bees on your land but don’t have the time to look after them? We set up and look after the colonies on your property, following the same practices as in our own forest. The colonies stay yours, and so do their records.
Harvest day
We work alongside you on harvest day: deciding what to take and what to leave the colony, extracting, and storing the honey proper
Every colony has a story. Tell us yours.
