At the
Gretchen Bee Ranch our
first commitment is to
provide you with fresh,
healthy products from
our bee hives and from
the hives of other
beekeepers that we
know and trust. You can be
assured that when you buy our honey, and other bee
crafted products, you will
know exactly where they
come from. All of our
|
products are presented to you as purely as they come out of the hive. Nothing added, nothing taken away.
Our second commitment at the Gretchen Bee Ranch is to help replenish the bees
that have disappeared from our area. Varroa mites, colony collapse disorder and small
hive beetles are three of the adversaries that imperil bee hives today, and that have
taken a serious toll on our world’s bee population. With 30% of our diet dependent on
pollination, the problem
is troubling.

At the Gretchen Bee Ranch we are taking steps to
remedy this situation locally by strategically placing our bee yards where they can pollinate
farms and native plants throughout the region. Unlike large migratory bee companies,
our hives stay put throughout the year so that they can pollinate the crops and flowers
that bloom in each season. The way we see it, our bees are adding beauty, color and abundance
to the world around them.
By purchasing our products or
sponsoring a bee hive, you are
helping save honey bees as they
work to make our world just a
little sweeter.

Honeybees are earth’s best pollinators and they are dying. Commercial beekeepers in the United States
reported losses of thirty percent of all
their colonies during the 2010/2011
winter. Worldwide, bees are plagued by
18 known viruses, virulent pests such as the small hive beetles and the varroa destructor mites, and a still mysterious killer ominously named Colony Collapse Disorder.
With one-third of our food supply at
risk should we lose these pollinators,
you can help. You can add one
hive of bees to the planet by participating in
our “Help the Bees” program.
