Virginia will pay you to take up Bee Keeping!

The Virginia General Assembly created the Beehive Grant Fund to promote the establishment of new beehives.

Under the program, people can apply for a grant from the fund to cover the cost of purchasing a new hive or materials to construct a new hive.

The grant will pay for the actual expenses incurred up to $200 per hive, not exceeding $2,400 per person, per year.

Our town considers beehives a 'nuisance', so if even one person in the neighbourhood complains, you have to get rid of them.
