Bee rescue
If you have bees you cannot keep, or equipment with another season in it, tell us. Rescued colonies join careful, hands-on management and may contribute to the honey bee hive data we collect and analyze in our Michigan research yard.
Swarms and colonies
A swarm in a tree, a nuc that is fading, or a hive you can no longer keep. Tell us the town and what is happening so we can understand the urgency and travel involved.
Equipment
Sound boxes, frames, feeders, and tools can extend the research budget and keep usable materials in service. We inspect equipment before it enters the yard.
Funds and hands
Feed, treatments, sensors, and patient field work all cost something. Financial support and experienced volunteer time help care for colonies and keep the research moving.
