Step into the field this spring and help us safely catch and relocate honeybee swarms across Central Arkansas.
Swarm Squad is a hands-on opportunity to learn beekeeping in real time, support pollinators, and work alongside experienced beekeepers in your community.
How it works:
-
Register here to join the Swarm Squad (free)
-
You’ll be invited into our beekeeper communication app
-
Attend one required in-person training:
-
March 28th at 2pm — Vestal Park (North Little Rock)
-
Additional training date offered in April
-
-
Sign a waiver at training before participating
What to expect:
-
Swarm calls are sent through the app — first to respond joins the catch
-
All swarms are handled with at least two beekeepers for safety and mentorship
-
No experience needed — just curiosity and a willingness to learn
-
Safety equipment and materials are provided
Swarm Sharing:
-
First swarm caught goes to Calm+Confidence
-
After that, swarms alternate between C+C and participating beekeepers (50/50)
Details:
-
Must be 16+ to participate

Participate at your own risk
