Sharing Beekeeping Through Education

Education is a core part of Engaged Bees. Through hands-on demonstrations, workshops, and community events, we help people better understand how honeybees work, why they matter, and how thoughtful beekeeping supports both the colony and the environment.

By opening our hives to others, we turn curiosity into understanding — and understanding into support for pollinators and local food systems.

Where to Find Engaged Bees Honey

You can find Engaged Bees honey at select farmers markets and local events throughout the year, as well as directly through this website.

Because honey production depends on weather, forage, and colony health, availability varies seasonally. If a variety is not currently available online, check back soon or visit us at an upcoming market.
