- Our Mission -

Bee Friendly Honey seeks to provide great customer service, promote a local sustainable pollination source and Eco-friendly pesticide-free wasp removals for our community! All bees that provide pollination to our gardens, flowers and trees that we collect through our services are re-hived by partnering with local beekeepers who tend to the bees needs and then work with local clients to re-home the bees back into our communities so their important pollination work can continue. We are a small local business, born and raised in the East Bay Area. Our main goal is to save bees, the environment and spread awareness of what we do and why beekeeping and pollinator health are vital to the health of our planet. We also work with clients, educating them in the diversification of their yards for natural pollinators, thereby helping the environment and emphasizing sustainable and eco-friendly landscaping. Our practices promote local biodiversity and sustainable ethics. Future plans include the creation of a sustainable farm that produces solely pollinator-friendly flora, protects bees, and gives back to the environment.

- Steven Harris -

Ever since I was a young boy I can remember lifting up stones, wood logs, bricks, pavers, anything that might conceal some type of bug or animal.  As I grew older, my room became filled with terrariums and aquariums that brought the natural world I so craved right inside my home: the glass enclosures teemed with sound and life,  sharing secrets that only the most observant entomologist could decipher.  I grew up, wondering if there was ever going to be a way for me to keep learning from the most wonderful teacher I'd ever had, nature herself. Nature also inspired me to experiment with plants, and I ended up developing a green thumb nursing plants back to life and growing new and exotic ones from seeds and cuttings. This is when I decided to attend Cal Poly State University, to study plants and flowers that grew with the vigor of my imagination.  Then one day working in the flowers, I saw a honey bee, and my eyes lit up as I realized I had finally found a way to follow my heart, intertwining my love of horticulture and animals.. 

I majored in Agricultural Environmental Plant Sciences, with a concentration in Greenhouse Nursery Plant Production. My coursework included classes in sustainability, environmental sciences, irrigation of crops and water fluidity dynamics, pest management, entomology, plant propagation, plant identification, beekeeping, botany, soil sciences, and the flow of water in our environment. I was trained to look at an ecosystem critically, and be aware of favorable conditions and places where bees and plants should be located (or not) due to environmental or man made factors. 

I hope Bee Friendly Honey can help you in your time of need!
