Who We Are

Flight Deck Honey Company is built by veterans and grounded in family.
Bryan retired from the United States Army after 29 years in Army Aviation, earning the rank of Command Sergeant Major. Bryan’s son-in-law Kody served with the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, the Night Stalkers, one of the most elite aviation units in the US military. Together with their families they built Flight Deck Apiaries from the ground up.
The name Flight Deck honors the aviation heritage this family carries, and the precision, accountability, and commitment to excellence that military service demands. Those same values show up in everything we do, from how we manage our colonies to how we build our equipment and raise our queens.
Together we operate 48 colonies and growing across two apiaries in North Alabama, Lacey’s Spring and Redstone Arsenal. We raise locally adapted open-mated queens from proven genetics, build our hive equipment by hand, and intentionally plant bee forage on our property because we believe what our bees eat matters as much as how we manage them, and the next generation is already growing up surrounded by bees, honey, and the values this family has always lived by.
Every jar of Flight Deck honey carries the full weight of that story, service, family, craftsmanship, and a deep respect for the land we tend.
Veteran owned. Family operated. Night Stalkers don’t quit.
