Most of us have heard these warnings:

“The pollination crisis is upon us. Honey bees are not doing well.” 

Did you know that you can improve the plight of pollinators in your back yard?

One type of native bee commonly found in the Seattle area is the orchard mason bee; it is also known as the blue orchard bee (BOB). Native bees have always been in our midst even when we didn’t know it. Your yard may already be hosting them. You can become a conscious bee farmer with the support we offer at Rent Mason Bees.


•  Guarantee that your garden and fruit trees will be pollinated.

•  No need to shop for bees, nesting box, and protective house. 
     Bees come with a complete kit. No extra purchases required.

•  Enjoy the easiest pet you’ll ever have. No grooming, feeding, 
     or pet sitter needed and no clean up.

•  Simply hang the bee house in your yard, garden, orchard, or field.

•  You harvest the crop they pollinate in your yard.

•  At the end of the season, we store the bees over the winter for you.
