We took the tour and tasting today. What a wonderful and educational experience. Chase is very passionate about what he does and it shows. This young man has a great future ahead of him. I was completely fascinated by the entire experience. Definitely would go again! Great for all family members regardless of age.

Unique and fun experience. I was super impressed by the whole experience. Not only did I learn alot, but I got to wear a bee suit and commune with the hive. Ya don't get to do that everyday! Well worth it. They also sell a ton of unique honey for purchase. The team is so nice too, make you feel so comfortable. A+++ EDIT: Went back and brought my mom! Excellent AGAIN! You cannot go wrong with a visit here!
