Frequently asked questions
Urban beekeeping in Miami is regulated by local ordinances and the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS). Beekeepers must register their hives with the state and follow guidelines for hive placement. Professional Alvéole beekeepers ensure compliance with all local and state regulations.
Urban beekeeping is safe, with many successful bee programs operating throughout Miami. At Alvéole, we work with a special breed of Italian honey bees selected for their docility. Honey bees are gentle creatures who (almost) never sting without reason. Unless they feel threatened, bees have no motivation to sting – in fact, once they sting, they lose their stinger along with a part of their abdomen, and die.Wild bees are as peaceful as honey bees. They technically can sting, but they don’t. Docile and nonterritorial, they’re extremely gentle. Unless they’re being touched, they simply go about their business.
A bee program supports Miami’s sustainability goals, including those outlined in the Miami Forever Climate Ready strategy. A bee program promotes urban biodiversity and provides educational opportunities about the essential role of pollinators in maintaining healthy ecosystems. This aligns with Miami's broader efforts to promote environmental stewardship and create a more sustainable and resilient city.
