Macy’s Apples & Hives

Small Idaho Bee Keeper

Located in Southern Idaho, the folks at Macy’s Apples & Hives manage to stay as busy as their bees! With over 700 fruit trees and an apiary of between 135-145 bee hives (depending on the time of year), they certainly have their work cut out for them.

When they aren’t tending to the apiary and the orchards, they are hard at work harvesting honey and making beeswax products, tinctures and salves. You can find these products for sale at the Portneuf Valley Farmers Market from May – October, or on their website.

“We are a commercial apiary licensed through the state of Idaho. Products include: honey, honey candy and suckers, beeswax products, bee propolis products, orchard/garden (apples, peaches, garlic) products, and baking extracts.”
