We are excited to partner with Tennessee beekeeper Kamon Reynolds to offer mid-April five frame nucs!
Approximate pickup date will be April 20th. If you place an order, we will contact you to confirm the precise pickup date a couple weeks in advance.
Whether you're ordering your first bees or adding more hives to an existing apiary, a nucleus "nuc" colony is a very popular option. A nuc is a fully functioning mini hive, with a laying queen, various stages of brood, honey, and pollen. Starting with a nuc means you have a "leg up" on the process, because it is already an established bee colony. Our nucs come with a marked, fresh laying queen, 5 frames of brood, honey, pollen, and a reusable plywood or plastic nuc box that's easy to carry and transport.
Nucs are available for pickup only at our location in Minonk, IL. We do not ship nucs!
Another note: live bees are for local pickup only and are priced accordingly, so there is no 10% pickup discount like our other products have. If you are ordering other items in addition to bees, please place a separate order if possible. Contact us with any questions. Thanks!
