Villa Bee

Our family apiary, and the nonprofit behind it.

Villa Bee is Geoff and Kathryn’s 501(c)(3) nonprofit in Springfield, Oregon: single-hive raw honey, a small-batch hive apothecary, pollinator habitat, and hands-on nature education for children and the childlike at heart.

Every jar starts at the hive.

Our bees live at Villa Bee in Springfield, Oregon. Each hive is harvested on its own, so every jar of Villa Bee raw honey tastes of one hive and one season, from deep amber to pale gold.

A portion of every sale supports local beekeepers, and every gift helps grow the apiary, plant pollinator habitat, and bring bee education to kids.
