Beekeeping Mentorship
Are you looking to undertake a hive or two and want someone with an experienced eye to double-check your bees? Or are you a seasoned beekeeper but have trouble producing honey and keeping your bees healthy? We all have to start somewhere. I'm here to help you through a season or even a single visit to confirm your beekeeping decisions. Join me in reading your hive and help you become a successful beekeeper!

Why Conroy's Honey?
​
Over the last 5 years, I've grown from a beekeeper with 2 hives to someone who manages almost 200 hives a year. I've had the opportunity to witness every aspect of beekeeping; whether it be diseases, viruses, pests, poor harvests, great harvests, bee complaints, angry bees, moving hives, hive placements—pretty much anything you can think of! This extensive experience has equipped me with a deep understanding and practical knowledge of the complexities and challenges in beekeeping. As your mentor, I am committed to sharing my expertise, guiding you through both the highs and lows, and helping you develop into a confident and successful beekeeper. Let's embark on this journey together and create a thriving environment for your bees.
