About us

Connecting people to nature

We’ve been buzzing since 2013. It all started when three childhood friends wanted to flip the conventional beekeeping model. Instead of one person caring for hundreds of honey bee hives, why not bring hundreds of people together around one hive?

A purpose-driven company build to bring nature into cities.

Once you get to know them, falling in love with bees is inevitable. And we all feel a need to protect the things we love.

Today, we partner with buildings in more than 60 cities across North America and Europe, promoting more sustainable cities and cultivating deeper connections to nature wherever we go.
