About Dewberry Honey Bee Farm

Dewberry Honey Bee Farm operates out of Whitney, Texas, a small Hill Country town situated along Lake Whitney where rural landscapes and wildflower meadows make for excellent foraging territory for bees. This farm combines honey production with pest control services, covering two of the most common needs local residents and property owners have when bees show up uninvited or when they're looking for locally sourced honey. Whitney sits in Hill County, where agriculture and open land are a way of life, making beekeeping a natural fit for the region. You can reach them directly at (254) 205-5490.

Services & Process

Dewberry Honey Bee Farm offers raw honey sourced from hives managed in the Whitney area, giving customers access to honey that reflects the local flora, including wildflowers and native Texas plants common to the Brazos River Valley. Their pest control side of the business handles bee removal for homeowners, businesses, and farmers who've discovered unwanted swarms or established colonies in walls, sheds, or trees. Unlike standard exterminators, a beekeeper-led removal service prioritizes live removal whenever possible, relocating colonies rather than destroying them. This approach protects local pollinator populations while solving the immediate problem for property owners.

Service Area

Dewberry Honey Bee Farm serves Whitney and the surrounding Hill County area, including communities near Lake Whitney and along the Highway 22 corridor. Customers from Hillsboro, Clifton, and Meridian also reach out for both honey and pest control needs. The rural character of this part of Texas means bee-related calls come from a wide geographic range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you remove bees without killing them?
Yes, live removal is the preferred approach whenever the situation allows for it. Bees are relocated rather than exterminated, which is better for the colony and for local pollinator populations in the Hill County area.
What types of properties do you handle bee removal on?
Residential homes, barns, outbuildings, and commercial properties are all common. Bees frequently establish colonies inside wall voids, attic spaces, water meter boxes, and old tree trunks on rural Texas properties.
Is your honey raw or processed?
The honey from Dewberry Honey Bee Farm is locally sourced and small-batch, reflecting what's blooming in the Whitney area at the time of harvest. Call ahead to ask about current availability and whether it's been filtered or minimally processed.
How quickly can you respond to a bee problem?
Response times depend on the season and current workload, since spring and early summer bring significantly more swarm activity across central Texas. Calling (254) 205-5490 directly gives you the best idea of current availability.
Will bees come back after a removal?
If the comb and honey aren't fully removed from a wall or cavity, other bees can detect the scent and move in over time. A thorough removal that includes cleaning the cavity reduces this risk considerably.
Is locally sourced honey different from store-bought honey?
Local honey contains pollen from plants growing in your specific region, which some people seek out for that reason. It also tends to have a more distinct flavor profile tied to the wildflowers, clover, and native plants around Whitney and Hill County.
