What We Do

Beekeeping services tailored to your situation

From unexpected swarms to full apiary management, we handle every aspect of beekeeping with the care these remarkable insects deserve.

Swarm Rescue

Found a swarm clustering in your yard, tree, or wall? We'll safely collect and relocate it — no harm to the bees, no hassle for you.

Hive Installation

Ready to start your own apiary? We'll set up your hives in the right spot, introduce your colonies, and show you what comes next.

Honey Harvesting

Fresh, raw, local honey straight from our hives to your table. We harvest sustainably and can deliver or set up pickup.

Bee Removal

Bees nesting inside your walls, attic, or structure? We perform careful cutout removals, cleaning up after the colony so your home stays protected.

Education & Tours

Curious about bees? We offer farm tours and beginner workshops in the Riverside area. Learn the craft from someone who's lived it.

Apiary Consultation

Not sure where to start? We'll assess your property, recommend the right hive setup, and help you build a sustainable beekeeping practice.

About Bob

A lifelong passion for bees

Bob started keeping bees in Riverside over two decades ago — drawn to the quiet industry of the hive and the tangible reward of real honey. What began as a backyard hobby grew into a full-time commitment to the craft.

Today, Bob's Bee Farm & Swarm Rescue serves homeowners, property managers, and fellow beekeepers across the Inland Empire. Every swarm call, every hive installation, and every jar of honey carries the same standard: do it right, treat the bees well, and leave things better than you found them.

Based out of Sandy Lane, Bob knows these neighborhoods and the unique challenges they bring — from urban swarms to suburban apiary setups. He's not a franchise. He's the person who shows up, does the work, and answers his own phone.
