🐝 From a Small Nucleus to a Growing Colony!

October 29, 2026 🌿

Come along as we transfer this small colony into a larger hive!

Thanks to the recent rains in Aruba, nature is coming back to life. 🌸 Flowers are starting to bloom, and our bee colonies are growing stronger.

This colony is ready for more space!
We're adding three frames of wax foundation to give the bees room to expand.

As you can see, the colony has healthy brood and good honey reserves a great sign for the flowering season ahead!

🐝 Have you ever seen how beekeepers help a small colony grow?

🐝🌧️ THE RAINS ARE BACK… AND THE BEES ARE GETTING BUSY!🍯

Something beautiful is happening in Aruba's countryside.

After months of dry weather, the first rains are bringing new life to our island. Trees and wildflowers are beginning to bloom, and our honeybees are back at work, collecting nectar and preparing for the season ahead.

For us beekeepers, this is one of the most exciting times of the year.

Every hive inspection brings us one step closer to something we've been patiently waiting for…

🍯 Fresh, locally harvested Aruban honey!

Nature sets the schedule, not us. If the flowers keep blooming and the bees have enough honey to spare, we hope to begin harvesting soon.

From Aruba's flowers, through our bees, straight to your table.

Stay tuned. Aruba's honey season is just around the corner!🐝💛

🐝🍯 FREE BEES, FREE HONEY… FREE WORK?🤔

“But you get to keep the bees… so why do you charge for removing them?”

It's a question we sometimes hear and we understand why people ask!

But there's a lot more behind a bee removal than most people realize.

🎥 As you can see in this video, bee removal involves much more than simply collecting bees. What looks like a simple rescue can require hours of preparation, physical work, and careful handling.

🚗 Transportation & Fuel: Diesel, vehicle maintenance and sometimes multiple trips.

👷 Time & Labor: Many removals require two people and several hours of work, often under the hot Aruban sun.

🧰 Equipment & Safety: Protective gear, tools, hive boxes and the experience needed to work safely.

📋 Business Expenses: Like any business in Aruba, we have taxes, administration, maintenance and operating costs.

🍯 But what about the FREE HONEY?

Here's something many people don't realize: Not every colony has honey to harvest!

Especially in Aruba, where drought and limited flowering can leave colonies struggling just to survive.

Some rescued colonies need extra feeding, equipment and weeks or even months of care. And there's no guarantee they'll produce harvestable honey.

💛 We love saving bees, but rescuing them doesn't automatically mean we're making a profit.

When you hire a beekeeper, you're paying for their time, knowledge, equipment and the responsibility of doing the job safely and professionally.

Yes, we get to keep the bees. But that doesn't mean the work is free. 🐝

💬 Now we'd love to hear your opinion:

Knowing what goes into a bee removal, do you still think keeping the bees should be enough payment?🤔

Let us know what you think! 👇
