Ag Lease / 1-D-1 Exemption
Lease our hives to qualify for Texas agricultural tax exemption on your land.
Important: 5-year ag history required
Your property must have been used for agriculture (like livestock) for 5 of the past 7 years to qualify. If it's never had an ag or livestock exemption, you can't start getting beekeeping tax benefits right away — that 5-year history comes first. Not sure where your land stands? We'll help you figure it out.
How It Works

Texas's 1-D-1 Open Space appraisal gives landowners an agricultural valuation for keeping bees — perfect for 5 to 20 acres.
We place hives
We lease you the required number of hives and place them on your property.
Monthly care
