The growing trend is helping qualified land owners save money on their property taxes. Author: Bary Roy Updated: 10:25 PM CDT May 20, 2021
TROY, Texas As property tax values skyrocket, one avenue that is catching on for homeowners with qualifying land is to become a beekeeper and you can do it with little to no experience. My Dad got into beekeeping in 1975 and I was 8, so I ve been doing this all my life, said Randy Oakley, owner and operator of Oakley Family Apiaries.
Oakley keeps bees on his property in Elm Mott and also teaches others who want to learn the craft of beekeeping. He said some of those that come to him do so after they ve learned of a Texas Ag Exemption where people can raise bees on their property in exchange for a break on their property taxes.
