Improving the world, millions of bees at a time.
Our Story
A Veteran Owned business founded in 2021, The Bees Knees is committed to ecological sustainment and natural, renewable food sourcing.
Our hives are located between Athens and Coxsackie NY, keeping beesy pollinating multiple crops for local farmers! Stop by our home processing and contact-less storefront in the center of Athens Village where we also have a few hives on hand to watch us work or get up close and personal to see (with a suit of course) if we're out working.
Local Honey
Our honey products are available for online ordering or at your local farmers market. Our honeys change with the seasons and our flavors change with demand, so order ahead!
