About Serenity Apiaries
Serenity Apiaries was founded by Khalen and Jennifer Dunn. The bee yard originally sat on 30 acres in the heart of wine country near Dundee, Oregon. Khalen first became interested in beekeeping in the summer of 2009 when a swarm showed up on the property and was put into an empty hive box found in a shed. Spending hours at a time watching the bees go about their business left Khalen fascinated and intrigued with how complex the honey bee was. Finding a sense of calmness or serenity around the bees brought about the eventual name of the bee yard. 2012 brought in 10 packages of bees and additional colonies that were collected in swarm calls and colony removals. We have since moved from the countryside to the outskirts of Dayton, Oregon. We specialize in swarm and colony removal and help educate others about beekeeping.
