Frequently asked questions

Urban beekeeping in Tampa is regulated by local ordinances, which require beekeepers to follow guidelines on hive placement. Professional Alvéole beekeepers ensure compliance with all local requirements.

Urban beekeeping is safe and we have many successful bee programs throughout Tampa. 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.

A bee program supports Tampa’s sustainability initiatives, including goals outlined in the Tampa Comprehensive Plan. It promotes urban biodiversity and provides educational opportunities about the crucial role of pollinators in maintaining healthy environments. These programs align with Tampa’s broader efforts to promote environmental stewardship, enhance green spaces, and build a more sustainable and resilient community.
