Our MISSION is to support the health and well being of our community through QUALITY EDUCATION, FOOD, AND PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT opportunities offered in an agricultural setting. As a veteran-owned, woman run farm, Bee Wise Farms is focused on community success and offers personal and professional support through programs, mentorship, and nature based therapies. Bee Wise Farms specializes in producing local, raw, varietal honeys from our apiaries located in Michigan's lower and upper peninsulas.
Bee Wise Farms, a diversified farm located in Newberry MI, produces lavender, herbs, cut flowers, honeybee products, and recycled art with a focus on healthy lives and healthy land. Bee Wise Farms is verified as environmentally sustainable through the Michigan Agriculture and Environmental Assurance Program (MAEAP).
Bee Wise Farms owners, Adam and Lacey Ingrao, are the proud founders of the HEROES TO HIVE program, dedicated to supporting the live of those returning from war.
Bee Wise Farms resides on ancestral Lands of the Anishinaabeg. With this knowledge, we aim to support and advocate for the sovereignty of Indigenous individuals and communities who live here. One of ways we do this is through the education of beekeeping knowledge for tribal communities. To achieve this we prioritize education to current tribal nations residing in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
