Welcome

Welcome to Walk in the Woods Apiary. We are a 2,000+ hive commercial apiary in Lancing, TN offering a wide variety of beekeeping goods and services.

2026 News

We will reopen online orders beginning May 1st for honey and nucs. We will reopen orders for queens and packages at a later date as soon as we can finish getting settled from the move out of Florida, hopefully in the second half of May.

New business phone number: (423) 215-6214

There will be a 10% cancellation fee for any online order that is cancelled.

The final semi arrives home to Tennessee from the California almond pollination. I spread the hives out to our new yards, get inspected by the state bee inspector, build nucs, begin putting on honey supers, and get (kinda) better takes on this week's round of grafts.

In my last episode, I argued AGAINST the subsidy programs I actually use in my commercial beekeeping operation. Now it's time for my real position. This is the companion to my Devil's Advocate episode on ELAP, NAP, and rainfall index insurance. If you haven't watched that one yet, I'd recommend starting there to get the full context, but this episode stands on its own as my defense of why I use these programs and plan to continue using them.
