Animal Reiki TJApril 16, 2024Mr. Bee is the bee's knees! Ordered Mr. Bee's raw, unfiltered honey and not only is it delicious, it came in a generous bottle size for its quality and very fair price. It compliments my ginger tea wonderfully and enjoying it with oatmeal and salads. Definitely will be ordering again!

Laura BanfieldApril 10, 2024I took the level one and two beekeeping courses (and will be signing up for the third level). For those new to beekeeping or even just interested in learning more about beekeeping, I could not recommend these classes enough! It is a small setting so you get to ask tons of questions. The information is interesting and well-presented. Also, I bought about 5 bottles of honey after class and all were AMAZING. I will be back to learn more and get more honey!
Gabriella LopezApril 10, 2024I recently joined the beekeeping classes offered by MrBee and I couldn't be happier with my experience. As someone completely new to beekeeping, I was looking for a comprehensive introduction, and these classes delivered beyond my expectations The instructor was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about bees, making every session engaging and informative. From learning about hive maintenance to understanding the importance of bees in our ecosystem, I felt like I gained a solid foundation in beekeeping practices. I left each class feeling inspired. Moreover, the sense of community fostered during these classes was remarkable. Interacting with fellow participants who shared the same interest in bees created a supportive environment where we could learn from each other's experiences. Overall, I highly recommend MrBee Honey Emporium beekeeping classes to anyone interested in learning about beekeeping, whether you're a beginner like me or have some experience. It's an enriching and rewarding experience that I'm grateful to have been a part of. Thank you to the team at Mr Bee for offering such a fantastic opportunity to learn and grow.
