College Beekeeper Sells Honey As a Side Hustle to Cover Tuition Costs ...

Liz Partsch 2026-05-04T09:11:01.295Z Anthony Ondo, a student at Chatham University, sells honey to pay his tuition. He manages dozens of hives across western Pennsylvania. Ondo, 23, expanded his business with local partnerships. While some college students become resident assistants or baristas to help cover school fees, Anthony Ondo took a less traditional approach: bees. Ondo, a senior at Chatham University who studies sustainable business, is a dedicated beekeeper who manages a 50-hive apiary in western Pennsylvania. Ondo harvests the honey twice a year and sells it to help pay for his tuition."I have some scholarship opportunities and do take one small federal loan, but other than that, I'm able to pay the rest of that tuition with money from my business," Ondo, 23, told Business Insider.

Scaling UpScaling the business has been a key part of Ondo's success, though it didn't involve VC investors or rounds of funding.Ondo needed more land for his apiary, so he armed himself with bottles of honey and knocked on doors, asking if he could put beehives in backyards."I negotiate with property owners to keep the hives on the property. I give them my little 30-second pitch and let them try the honey. I've been very successful," Ondo said, adding that the owners are typically happy to accept a few bottles of honey as payment.Ondo has also found luck through partnerships, including one with Dillner Family Farms in nearby Gibsonia. He also sells his honey to local cafés and small businesses in the area."As I grow the hive count, I've collecte...
