We offer a variety of services for beekeepers, we:
Find a suitable orchard for your bees. Placement by pallets, boom, or by hand.
Supply a computer generated map. Insure easy location of orchards & placement of hives.
Correlate arrival and removal of hives from orchard.
Provide updated information on County Agriculture Offices.
Negotiate fair price for rental of your hives with almond grower.
Provide written contract.
Act as a
liaison between beekeeper and almond grower.
Help with collection of your pollination fee if need arises. (Very seldom needed)
Help keep the almond grower informed of harmful effects of pesticides.
Have access to extra hives for emergencies.
We simply can't say enough about communication. It can mean the difference between success or disaster. Early placement to a beekeeper may be 10% bloom, but early placement to the almond grower could be two weeks before bloom. Alleviating misunderstandings before the bees are placed in the orchard is a goal we strive to maintain.
