Queen Bees

A healthy, well-mated queen bee is a fundamental requirement for a successful colony.  We produce a select number of queens annually by grafting from our very best colonies and saturate the area with drones for open mating.

The bulk of our queens are reserved for the development of nucleus colonies, however we often have mated queens available for individual sale beginning in late May.  If you are feeling adventurous, there is the option of introducing a virgin queen or a queen cell.  Feel free to call for availability.  804-839-1191
