Don’t just take our word for it
Eliese is smart, knowledgeable, personable and just plain nice. Her beekeeping knowledge is far beyond most and she knows how to communicate it. But beyond that she has a charisma that I don’t know how to put into words. People just find it a joy to be around her.Author, “The Practical Beekeeper”Michael Bush
Eliese, the format of her webinars and question and answer period, is the best I’ve ever participated in. This was a great event to take part in.

Amazing support from the initial education/class to ongoing mentoring and general availability for questions. I cannot stress to beginners enough how starting with ABC is like having a bee master in your back pocket! Thank you for the support and many opportunities to learn and experience.

Eliese has literally counselled us through tricky installs, pest/disease management (oxalic acid!) and we’ve had to purchase queens from ABC Bees many times. Thank you for all that you do!

ABC Bees provides amazing support and learning opportunities for new beekeepers. I know I’ll hit bumps in the road but right now I’m feeling well equipped and am really enjoying the journey.

“I love that the central goal of ABC Bees is to educate beekeepers through such a wonderful variety of learning – programs, internships, classes, videos, Master Academy, newsletters. Also commendable is the level of excellence that is evident in the planning and execution of all these programs. And each year the level of excellence exceeds the year before. Education is at its best when provided by experts that leave lots of avenues and carefully picked resources for further exploration and learning by the individual beekeepers. This is promoting a healthy and well informed group of beekeepers who will progress and enhance beekeeping expertise. Excellently done, ABC BEES.
