Most beekeepers hit the same wall: you've got healthy hives, more honey than your family can eat, and no clear path to turning it into income.

Hive to Harvest is a 33-lesson course that takes you from backyard beekeeper to profitable farmers market vendor — step by step, with real beekeeping terminology and practical business strategy.

What's Inside

8 chapters covering the full journey:

🔍 Apiary Evaluation — Audit colony strength, assess your bee stock, plan your expansion site, and inventory your equipment

📈 Scaling Up — Make splits, rear queens, manage swarms, and build your colony count from a handful to a production apiary

🛡️ Pest Management — Varroa monitoring (alcohol wash & sugar roll), organic and synthetic treatments, brood disease detection, and a year-round IPM calendar

🍯 Harvesting at Scale — Read the honey flow, master extraction & filtering, use a refractometer for moisture content, and bottle properly for retail

🧴 Value-Added Products — Cut comb, rendered beeswax, propolis & pollen collection, infused honey, and creamed honey recipes

📋 Legal & Compliance — Cottage food laws by state, FDA labeling requirements, food handling certifications, liability insurance, and business structure

💰 Pricing & Branding — True cost-per-jar analysis, retail vs. wholesale pricing, building your apiary brand story, and packaging design
