Rainy Day Bees: Saving Pollinators, One Backyard at a Time

Rainy Day Bees has been presented with a 2025 Snail of Approval award, and we could not be more thrilled! 

Amy Beth and Peter Nolte care for over 150 beehives in 30+ backyards, rooftops, regenerative farms, and forestry land in Seattle and all over King, Snohomish, and Pierce counties. They are known for their ultra-pure, raw, neighborhood-specific honeys, as well as beeswax candles and bee pollen. Their collaboration with their hive hosts not only increases the supply of local honey, but also expands knowledge of honeybees and their impact in local ecosystems. Rainy Day Bees bottles their honey in-house and labels each jar with the location of hives, showcasing their commitment to traceability in all their products.

In addition to their online shop and constant presence at our farmers markets, Rainy Day Bees also hosts hive tours, guided honey tastings, and gives instruction to folks interested in keeping bees themselves. Community is at the core of Rainy Day Bees, and Peter, Amy Beth, and their employees are generous with their time, knowledge, and their hyper-local honey. What could be sweeter than that?

Congratulations to Amy Beth, Peter, and the team at Rainy Day Bees on your well-earned recognition!
