- The satisfaction of knowing the hive you adopted makes a difference in helping to preserve the farming community on the East End
More Buzz:
- A single, low price of $350.00 buys everything
- Adoption lasts for 1 full year; renewable for $200 per year
- Adopt for yourself or give as a gift to friends or family
- As per CSA (Community Supported Agriculture), if for some reason the hive you adopted does not produce enough honey for a full case (12 jars), you will be offered your choice of one of our specialty honeys or an extension for honey from the following season
- The apiaries are located on various farms throughout the East End on both forks. The bees are on working, private farms and as such the public cannot visit them.
