PHILOSOPHY OF SWAZEY FARMS

Not just a farm, but a way of life

For years, Swazey Farms has sought to create a sustainable oasis in a suburban community. Too often people assume agriculture is reserved for large rural properties. We've approached sustainable agriculture one step at a time, implementing methods and tactics acquired from years of research and networking. We are proud to share the fruits of our labor with our followers but our primary focus is on education. Sharing our ideas and providing ways to implement them at any scale is our passion.

REPORT A SWARM or CUTOUT!

Encountering honey bees on your property? Whatever you do, resist the urge to spray! If you do, unfortunately, we won't be able to assist you.

Our expertise lies in the humane relocation of honey bees, from trees and bushes to fences, attics, and walls – you name it! Most often, our services come with minimal costs. (Additional fees may apply for demolition and cutout requirements.) To ensure we offer you the best assistance, please provide as much detail as possible about the swarm or hive's size, location, and accessibility. Your cooperation allows us to swiftly and effectively serve you, protecting these essential pollinators and ensuring their safe relocation.

We perform removals typically from May through August with exceptions on a case by case basis. After August the bees will begin winter preparations and eventually go dormant. Come Spring, we can reassess and address your issue.
