About This Product: Overwintered nucs are our survivor stock bees with a established bred queen in a five frame cardboard nuc that have survived the winter. The most important part of starting a new colony is having a great queen and we won’t sell it until she has proven herself. These queens were bred in late summer and are ready to become “producing hives”. Our bees live in Western New York year round and never leave. 

These nucs have two frames of honey/pollen essential for hive growth and two are growing brood (baby bees). The last frame is left open for the hive to build on and expand. This is the only way we can offer a nuc in the month of May! For now, quantities are limited but once spring arrives we will know better how many can be available so make sure to check back when we sell out! 

We will know if the queen bees are still thriving and ready to sell when the weather breaks. We will contact you via email when spring arrives to schedule a pickup time.

Our Guarantee: We believe in selling high quality bees and are confident in our product. If you have a problem within 2 weeks of receiving your nuc, we will either replace or fix the problem at no additional cost to you. 

Need some equipment to go along with your bees? We can help! Check out our equipment and kits that you can purchase online, or at pickup when you receive your nucs.
