Adopt A Drone Bee Or Hive

What Is a Drone Bee or Hive Adoption?

🐝 Drone Bee or Hive Adoption
Our introductory adoption level, perfect for bee lovers who want to support honey bee conservation and local beekeeping.

When you adopt a Drone Bee or Hive through Fingerlakes Honey Company, you're helping support honey bees that live in our apiary in the beautiful Finger Lakes Region of New York.

Drone bees play an important role within the colony and are essential to the continuation of future honey bee generations. Your one-year sponsorship helps provide resources needed to maintain healthy colonies, including hive equipment, bee care, hive maintenance, and sustainable beekeeping practices.

The bees remain in our care, where they continue their important work pollinating crops, gardens, orchards, and wildflowers throughout the Finger Lakes region.

Whether you're purchasing for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, you'll be helping support healthy honey bee colonies and local beekeeping for an entire year.

Important: This adoption is a sponsorship program. No live bees, queens, colonies, or hives are sold, transferred, or shipped.

 

🚗Pickup: Local pickup and limited local delivery available

✅ Shipping Fee Guarantee
Because shipping costs vary based on weight, distance, and carrier rates, you may occasionally pay slightly more than the actual shipping cost.

If that happens, you choose what happens to the difference:
• 💳 Refunded to your original payment method, or
• 🐝 Donated to help support our bees and beekeeping work

 

No hidden fees. No automatic upcharges. Just honesty and a little extra good in the world.
