Resources and Information
Have a Swarm?
Worcester County Beekeepers' Association
Worcester County Beekeepers' Association
A swarm is a cluster of bees temporarily resting in places such as trees or buildings while they look for a new home. Swarms typically disperse on their own within a few hours, but could take up to a few days. It is important to note that swarms are very docile and usually do not represent a threat.
However, there are instances where bees will make a permanent home in an unwanted location. Many beekeepers in the Worcester County area offer to help residents remove bees from property and structures. Contact information at the link below is updated annually.

Our Charities
Triangle Beagle Rescue of North Carolina
Beagles are loving and silly, if not a little stubborn! They are the perfect pack dog and loyal to their family, just like honey bees! Sadly, due to their loving nature, beagles are often used in laboratory experiments, as was the case with our first rescue, Sam.
We adopted Lilly and Bellatrix through the Triangle Beagle Rescue of NC, and we continue to support TBR with a portion of every sale. Check out their website below if you are looking to adopt or foster. Even if you can't take in a dog, you can still help through donation at the link below.
Special Olympics of North Carolina
Sarah has been involved with Special Olympics since an early age as her brother, Joe, has Downs Syndrome. Matt began supporting Special Olympics through his fraternity at Virginia Tech. Now, we continue to support Special Olympics with a portion of every sale. To donate or get more involved, please click on the link below.
