Hello we are the Wyatt's. In 1980 my grandfather (Frank Wyatt Sr), father (Frank Wyatt Jr), and two uncles bought some bees and equipment. At that time they thought they wanted to be beekeepers. Over the years, the uncles retired and my grandfather just could not continue. My father kept on and, like all of us, made mistakes along the way. In August 2013 he became an EAS (Eastern Apicultural Society) Master Beekeeper. My name is Frank Wyatt III but everyone calls me Tra (Tray). I have been lucky to have him to show me and tell me how to keep the bees. I am a US Army Veteran and a local public servant for my small town. We have been in business for a while but thought we should reach out to others and are willing to help if we can.

Do you want to help save honeybees without the risk of getting stung with No Work Required?
Our sponsor-a-hive program is the way to help!
This program is best for those who are…
· allergic to honeybees and can’t take care of your own hives
· have a desire to help the honeybee population
· aren't allowed to keep bees at your residence
· worried about getting stung and don’t want them flying around your property
· busy and can’t invest the time or effort needed to be a backyard beekeeper
· prefer to help honeybees in an easier, more hands-off way
· want to give a unique gift to a friend or loved one
When you purchase a sponsorship, you’re supporting one hive for an entire year. That money goes toward:
· Food - Throughout the year, we buy liquid sucrose, pollen patties, dry pollen, and winter patties for bee feed.
· Medicine – sometimes hives need treatments for different diseases or parasites. For example, the varroa mite treatments sometimes cost up to $30/hive.
· Equipment - woodenware repairs, extra honey supers, and small hive beetle traps. Repairs and/or replacement of other equipment involved with the operation.
· Purchasing bees and queens – in the case that your hive suffers a loss, replacement queen bees can cost approximately $30, and a total replacement of bees are around $125.
· Time – we will spend about an hour and a half per month per hive managing it throughout the year.
The sponsorship also gets you a social to show our appreciation at Hive on Washington St. in Eden NC. This includes one free drink and food provided.
Because we are a small, sustainable honey farm, you can rest assured that your sponsorship goes directly toward the wellbeing of the bees!
