Tickets are now live for our first Beehive Community Dinner on March 14 — and we’re excited to open our tables. We’re kicking things off with Burrito Night , a hearty, family-style meal with both meat and vegetarian options, shared at round tables designed to spark conversation and connection. After dinner, stay for The Hive After Hours  — featuring board games, card games, a kids’ craft table, and time to chat and linger. We’re starting small with just 40 seats, and advance

We’re excited to share that planning for our first Beehive Community Dinner is well underway. With our food permit approved, early funding coming together, and a date set for Saturday, March 14, things are starting to feel very real. We can’t wait to gather neighbours for a relaxed evening of good food and connection. Tickets should be available within the next week, so stay tuned or subscribe for updates.

Good things take a little time. Our first Beehive Community Dinner is now scheduled for Friday, March 14. We’re taking a little extra time to make sure everything is thoughtful, welcoming, and ready for our very first gathering. More details coming soon — we can’t wait to share a meal together.

The Beehive has a home! We’re thrilled to announce that our community dinners will be hosted at Mount Olive Lutheran Church in South Surrey — a warm, inclusive, and fully accessible space that aligns beautifully with our values. This partnership brings us one step closer to welcoming neighbours of all ages and backgrounds to the table in 2026. Read more about our next steps and how you can help us grow!

Meet the Beehive Leadership Team: The Beehive is powered by a small but mighty team of volunteers — Toby, Soni, and Janice — each bringing their own energy, skills, and passions to this growing community project. As we get ready to launch our very first community dinner, we’re excited to introduce the folks behind the buzz and share what inspires them to build a space where connection, good food, and community can thrive.

The Beehive aligns with the science behind eating together.

Thank you for checking out The Beehive website. We have moved from the dreaming phase to the planning and building phase of work and will be happy to welcome you soon.

When we first dreamed up The Beehive , the idea was simple, bring people together around the table. We believe that sharing food isn’t...

In the summer of 2023, our family stumbled upon Folkehuset Absalon in Copenhagen—a former church turned vibrant community hub. One evening, we joined nearly 200 strangers for a communal dinner of homemade bread, Danish comfort food, and lively conversation. What began as a meal with strangers became a lasting memory, and the inspiration for our own project: The Beehive.

The Beehive is a place where you can share dinner with people from you community.
