Did you know we're not just bee lovers, we're beekeepers. When we're not in the office, we're usually out in backyards, on rooftops or even in a cemetery with our hands in hives around NYC. This morning we released some queens into new hives with these special little cages. ----- #honeycrate #beekeepers #welovebees #beekeeping #beesofinstagram #beestagram #astorapiaries #nycbeekeeper #nycbees #tweet

Some sad news to report, but you can help. @wilkapiary, whose honey was featured in the first Honey Crate, suffered a huge loss of 2/3 of their hives this winter. This is a high loss rate but unfortunately with bee populations hurting, it's not completely out of the ordinary. They are selling honey right now to offset the significant costs of 22 new colonies. If you're in the market for some fine raw honey and want to make sure your dollars are going to the bees, head over to the Wilk Apiary online store and buy a jar or two.

For the end of your work week, enjoy a little aerial ballet from one of our own rooftop colonies. #bees #beesofinstagram #beekeeping #flying #dance #slomo #video #nyc #queens #rooftopbeekeeping #urbanbeekeeping #honeybees #honeycrate #beeinspired #nycbees (at Queens, New York)

We've been working hard on the upcoming My Honey Crate website. Something about all this work made us relate a lot to this little worker we watched emerge earlier this season from one of our rooftop hives. Stay tuned for an announcement very soon. #comingsoon #honeycrate #workinghard #worker #emerging #prelaunch #bees #honeybee #beesofinstagram #beeinspired #honeylove #savethebees #subscriptionbox #beehappy #beekeeping #rooftopbeekeeping #urbanbeekeeping #nycbees #honeybees #savethebeessavetheworld #capped #uncapped #newbee (at Astoria, New York)

Did you know we're beekeepers, ourselves? For #throwbackthursday here's one of our hives earlier this year before it built up. We love watching this slo-mo footage over and over. As graceful and efficient bees are, they can certainly trip over their wings in flight.
