Straight answers for landowners who want agricultural valuation without becoming beekeepers.

How much honey can I expect?

Varies by weather, forage, and hive health. Honey production is not guaranteed and is highly variable. We focus on managed pollination and customer-facing pricing only.

What if it's a bad honey year?

Nature happens. Some years are dry or cold. Your management fee covers our work regardless. We buffer against bad years by diversifying pollination services.

Can I market/sell honey myself?

Yes. We can coordinate harvest and let you handle sales. Or we can handle marketing and take a commission. Your choice.

Do pollination partnerships require neighbors?

Not required, but helpful. If neighbors have crops, hives add value to their operation too. We can facilitate partnerships if interested.

How often do you visit with Tier 2?

Bi-weekly during active season (March–October). More frequent monitoring helps catch disease early and optimize pollination timing.

🤝 Partnership Ready

Managed colonies provide pollination support across your property and may benefit neighboring agricultural operations.

Typical Scenarios

50-Acre Ranch with Hay

You run 50 acres of hay/cattle pasture. We place 12 colonies strategically across the property. Pollination may improve forage; results vary by conditions. Pricing is based on the managed service. No revenue or net-cost projections.

Plus: Strong ag exemption defense. Clear diversification of income.

100+ Acre Mixed Operation

You manage cattle, hay, and adjacent agricultural operations. We deploy 15–20 colonies, optimize for your forage types, and coordinate pollination across your property.

Plus: Premium ag exemption proof + neighbor partnerships + positive environmental PR.

Cooperative / Multi-Property Network

A group of landowners coordinates for hive management across multiple properties. We optimize colony placement for collective pollination benefits.

Plus: Economies of scale, community partnerships, shared insurance.

Service Options

For properties with pollination objectives, we offer flexible service arrangements based on your operational needs and property characteristics. All pricing is customer-facing and quoted on assessment.
