Raw wildflower
honey.

From hives across San Francisco. Every harvest tastes a little different, like the season it came from.

Found a swarm?
Call Dan.

He is on the San Francisco Beekeepers Association swarm list and answers swarm calls from the public.

He also removes hives from homes and structures.

Need a swarm removed? Moving them costs less than extermination, and the bees get to live.

Hold near the swarm to smoke.

Events for kids
& grown‑ups.

Dan does school visits and classes; he brings the bees to schools, preschool through high school.

Beekeeping classes for adults at Garden for the Environment, Alemany Farm & through the San Francisco Beekeepers Association.

It started with
a swarm in 2006.

Dan's first hive was a swarm he re-homed. Today his bees live on a neighbor's rooftop, at the Park Street Community Garden and at Alemany Farm, where he serves on the steering committee.
