Increase Colony Health with Healthy Hive Management Tools

Colony data tracking and analysis are important to the expert beekeepers in an age where “the way we’ve done it” doesn’t seem to have the same results as it used to. The proprietary software comes with an expanding suite of tools to help us help you become better at observing and identifying ways to support your honey bee colony.

Experts track specific data during every inspection… it’s how they come up with the best results. Click here to see a short demo.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between Lab Basic, Lab + and BEE Educated Lab?

Lab Basic is perfect for beekeepers who want a non-judgmental community, and just the facts via the step-by-step, “checklists on steroids” we lovingly call Execution Plans.

For beekeepers who want more in-depth training, Lab+ is the perfect option, because it’s everything in Lab Basic PLUS (hence the name) all of our Master Classes and Certifications and access to the Healthy Hive Management Software. And then there’s BEE Educated Lab. 

BEE Educated Lab is the highest level of membership we offer at Beepods, and it’s for beekeepers and educators who truly want it all! First, BEE Educated members get access to a smaller, community within the community where members of the Beepods Team and Faculty hang out every day. BEE Educated members also get to participate in live, virtual, 1-day workshops. It’s also for teacher and educator teams since with BEE Educated you can add up to a classroom of students or team members as opposed to the single-user access that comes with the lower levels.

How often do you release new content?

Weekly! But don’t feel like you have to consume everything the moment it’s released. Everything we create is archived in the lab, so there’s no rush or pressure to access it in real-time. Think of Beepods Lab as your always-available, beekeeping library. There’s a reason it’s been called, “Netflix for Beekeepers.” 🙂

What skills do I need to have to get the most out of Lab?

The only skill you need is a willingness to learn. The Beepods Lab content and community have resources and advice for beginner and advanced beekeepers, alike, and we firmly believe there are no stupid questions. Heck, even the Beepods team learns a ton when our newest members ask supposedly “stupid questions” that remind us of things we should be doing, but aren’t for whatever reason.

What if I want to cancel? Am I locked into a contract?

As a member, you can cancel at any time. While we hope you stay forever, we despise contracts and would never impose them on our members.

That being said, we do offer long-term discounts for people who want to purchase bulk Lab memberships for a set time period. But once that time is done, if you want out… no problem.  If you want to shift to month-to-month at the end, no problem. Just let us know.

How long does it take to complete a Master Class/Certification?

Our Master Classes and Certifications are designed to be completed over a 2-day period if you’re consuming full-time, or a 7-day period if you’re allocating an hour or two a day to the training.

Do you offer a trial?

Sometimes we offer trials on the Lab and Lab Plus.  BEE Educated Lab Membership is by application only and typically does not include a trial.

Once I become a member, where should I start?

Before you do anything else, you need to join the community and ask at least one burning question. (Don’t have a question? Don’t worry… we’ll give you a few ideas.) Then, dive into our Execution Plan Library and pick up an EP that will help you reach your beekeeping goals. Not sure where to start? We recommend the “Mini-Bee Bootcamp” workshop…
