Getting Started with Beekeeping & How to get your first hive

We sell our Ohio Honeybees in nucleus hive or “Nuc” for short. There are a lot of great reasons to get started with a Nuc. It is a partially developed colony where the bees have had time to build up their infrastrucure, honey, pollen and a brood nest. Because of this, your bees will have a jump start on the season. It also means they can be ordered later in the season and still be able to build up enough supply for the winter. 

The queens that come with our Ohio honeybee nucs have been established for several weeks prior to be ready for purchase. She will have already been accepted by the colony and will come marked so that she is easier to find. Send us a message to get on our nuc list and get started your start with Beekeeping today!
