BeeSafe™ Standard Backed by Science, Research, and Best Practices
Science Based Care for Healthier Bees
Our Mason bees are raised and handled to Orchard Bee Association (OBA) standards for cleanliness, regional sourcing, and long-term bee health. That same commitment is formalized in the Crown Bees BeeSafe™ Standard, our science-based framework for nesting and seasonal care built on more than two decades of field research and collaboration with researchers and growers. It guides how our houses are designed, how our bees are sourced, and how we support you through every season so the habitat you provide actually works.
