Honey Bee Nucleus Colonies available for reservation and pick up*

 

Starting off with a healthy honey bee nucleus colony in Spring is the simplest way to start up a new hive. Our nucleus colonies are started with a new, 2026 Italian/Buckfast hybrid Queen early and raised on a healthy, natural nectar source before we bring them into our yard. The state of North Carolina inspects our nucleus colonies prior to distribution.

 

Need your Queen Bee marked inside your colony? Purchase your nucleus colonies and email [email protected] to make your request. Please give our beekeepers 48-hours advanced notice before pick up. Cost is $15. We will call you prior to pick up to take the payment for marking your Queen(s).
