These nucs were given mated queens the summer of 2023 and are made up of bees from our apiaries.  They have over-wintered in our apiaries in the Appalachian Mountains around Asheville.

SOLD OUT

Each five-frame nuc will be delivered in a plastic Pro-Nuc, Jester, or similar box and includes:

• 5 frames, which may include wood and/or plastic.
• At least three of the frames will have brood in various stages (eggs, larvae and capped brood).
• An established, laying, overwintered survivor queen, mated last summer.
• 1 frame of food, usually with honey and pollen.
• 1 frame of foundation to accommodate growth.  These colonies are growing rapidly, and we strongly recommend you move them into equipment with more room within a few days of purchase or they will begin to make swarm cells.
