Property taxes can be lowered by keeping bees
Texas law allows bees and bee hives to qualify for reducing property taxes on plots ranging from 5 to 20 acres, similar to livestock or raising hay. Dennis Herbert drafted the original legislation for the current bee law that allows small acreage land owners to receive their agricultural valuation if they wish to raise bees on their property. 02/09/2022 01:50 PM
