Corporate Beekeeping & Apiary Management
Local. Sustainable. Full-Service.
We install and manage honeybee hives on rooftops across Seattle, providing a unique tenant amenity that connects your community to the local food system.
Why Rainy Day Bees?
We aren't just beekeepers; we are Seattle experts with a decade of urban beekeeping experience. While national companies may only visit a dozen times a year, we provide 30+ hive inspections annually to ensure your bees are healthy and your building is safe.
Our Approach:
LEED & LBC Credits: Gain or maintain credits toward LEED or Living Building Challenge certifications.
A "Good Neighbor" Focus: Our programs are specifically designed around the PNW’s unique weather and seasons to ensure bees and tenants coexist peacefully.
WSDA Certified: All honey is handled in our WSDA Certified Processing Facility, ensuring the highest standards of food safety for your custom harvests.
24/7 Peace of Mind: Issues don't always happen during 9-to-5. We have on-call beekeepers available for weekend support.
Exclusive Corporate Amenities:
Custom Branding: From in-house label printing (any shape!) to custom beehive paint jobs, we can match your building’s aesthetic or corporate branding.
Team Building Activities: Let our professionals design your next event. We specialize in corporate team building that is educational, engaging, and unique.
Honey Buy-Back Program: If your hives produce more honey than you can use, we’ll buy it back to help offset your management costs.
