Welcome to Victory Garden Apiary, now located in beautiful Crisfield, MD. Our number one goal is preservation of the honeybee colonies in our area and public education on honeybees. We also occasionally sell honeybee colonies, honey, beeswax and bee products to support our cause. Future plans include guided apiary tours and possibly a small honey tasting area. If you’re interested in checking us out, please contact us for information!
Announcement:
Due to time and health constraints, we are no longer performing structural removals (also called cut-outs) beginning in 2023. We are certainly able to offer advice and expertise, but we cannot perform these types of complex hive relocations going forward. We will still offer swarm removal services. The information on the “Bees In Structures Or Trees” section of this website is still relevant, no matter who performs your removal.

For the first time in a long time, we'll be out in public selling honey! 🍯 We'll be at the Classic Rock Music Fest at Somers Cove Marina tomorrow, August 2nd, with two varieties of honey for sale. Our lighter spring honey is sweet and floral. Our darker fall honey has a bolder flavor, but still plenty of sweetness. Try one or both! See you soon!
The bees are enjoying the break in extreme heat. This is what I consider normal summertime bearding.
I tried, but in the end the orange hive couldn't keep the temperature down in that hive.
The weather this week has been tough. Hopefully temps will be a little less extreme going forward.
We've had quite the warm up the past two days. The bees are feeling the heat, but staying super busy. Everyone is looking healthy going into the summer dearth.
Tomorrow! We'll be at the library in Princess Anne tomorrow to give a presentation on honeybees. This will be a deep dive into how honeybees live and interact with their environment as well as the daily challenges they face to survive! We hope to see you there!
