WELCOME
Honey bees without the hassle.
Have you ever wanted your own honey bees but didn't know where to start — or simply didn't have the time? We've solved that. Los Angeles Beekeepers gives homeowners the joy of a thriving hive and jars of their own raw, local honey, while our beekeepers handle all the work. Your backyard becomes a small sanctuary that pollinates your garden and helps protect a species in decline.
THE REWARDS
Why host a beehive?
Our beekeepers and bees do all the work — you simply enjoy the benefits.
Help Save the Bees
Every hosted hive helps rebuild local bee populations. With up to 40% of colonies lost each year, your backyard becomes part of the solution.
Your Own Local Honey
Around 70% of honey in the U.S. is imported. Hosting a hive means fresh, raw, local honey — prized for its flavor and natural health benefits.
Pollinate Your Garden
Bees pollinate one of every three bites we eat. A hive means healthier, more abundant plants, trees, and blooms across your property.
Treatment-Free & Local
We raise treatment-free bees and keep our beekeeping local — never shipping hives away for commercial pollination.

PROPERTY TYPE
Suburban / Urban
Keeping honey bees in Los Angeles is easier than most homeowners realize. Local beekeeping regulations require a barrier—such as a fence, wall, or dense hedge—to encourage bees to fly above neighboring yards as they leave and return to the hive. Every colony also needs access to a dependable water source, and hives thrive when they receive several hours of direct sunlight each day.
Because many Los Angeles neighborhoods have limited full-sun exposure, selecting the right hive location is one of the most important factors for success. Our team evaluates your property, considers sunlight, airflow, and surrounding conditions, and recommends the ideal placement to help your bees establish a healthy, productive colony for years to come
Final placement is reviewed case by case — rooftops included.
