In September 2017 our family was stationed overseas when Caleb was involved in a catastrophic accident that resulted in two years of hospitalizations and doctor appointments that ultimately ended his military career. We started Bee Grateful Bee Rescue to help with Caleb's rehabilitation and give him purpose. Rescuing bees lead to the development of Bee Grateful Farm. Caleb has completed bee keeping courses through Michigan State University, and we keep up to date on bee care and practices through webinars, seminars, and hands on experience. Caleb takes care of the daily bee keeping, while I head up logistics, research, and marketing of the business. I have formulated the recipes of our natural beeswax products over the past few years because of my need for natural skin care products without toxic ingredients due to my autoimmune issues and sensitive skin. Our products use beeswax along with other quality organic ingredients.

 We also offer bee keeping services and classes to help your hives not only survive but thrive. If you want to get into keeping bees or want an agriculture exemption, we can help with that as well. Please reach out, so we can give you a quote as prices will vary since each situation be unique.

We sell live bees as well, and have nucs for that will be available for pickup in April. We have golden cordovan nucs for 2025. We also have all the bee supplies that a beekeeper needs to manage their hives.
