OTOMOTO Apiary
Whenever you book with us, 100% of the booking fee goes towards our apiary, which is used to maintain, feed, buy equipment and expand. This is especially excellent news for the environment! OTOMOTO has a new Rent-a-Hive™ program that we are excited to be piloting this summer. Limited hives are available.
“Honeybees are important pollinators of agricultural food crops and vital to our food supply. In Canada, it is estimated that the value of honey bees to agriculture is $1.3 billion. All pollinators, including honey bees, in particular, have suffered serious losses that are unsustainable. We need your help to save our pollinators.”
- Canadian Honey Council
Commercial
We provide fully managed, turn-key beekeeping solutions to local businesses and organizations.

Commercial packages start at $45 per hive.
Education (Pilot Project)
We are looking for a school that would like to start a Beekeeping Club. This is a pilot project, and services will be donated for the first year. The school must be in the Toronto area and have two teachers willing to participate in this project. Don't hesitate to get in touch with us at bees@torontomoto.com for more information.
