Frequently asked questions
Urban beekeeping in Sacramento is regulated by city ordinances, which require beekeepers to register their hives with the California Department of Food and Agriculture. Beekeepers must adhere to specific guidelines regarding hive placement and maintenance to ensure public safety and minimize disturbances to neighbors. Alvéole’s professional beekeepers ensure compliance with all local and state regulations in Sacramento.
Urban beekeeping is safe, with many successful bee programs operating throughout Sacramento. At Alvéole, we work with a special breed of Italian honey bees selected for their docility. Honey bees are gentle creatures who (almost) never sting without reason. Unless they feel threatened, bees have no motivation to sting – in fact, once they sting, they lose their stinger along with a part of their abdomen, and die.
Wild bees are as peaceful as honey bees. They technically can sting, but they don’t. Docile and nonterritorial, they’re extremely gentle. Unless they’re being touched, they simply go about their business.
Alvéole’s urban beekeeping program aligns with Sacramento’s sustainability efforts, including initiatives to promote green spaces, biodiversity, and environmental education. Alvéole’s approach to beekeeping contributes to Sacramento’s broader goals of creating a more sustainable urban environment.
