Are you interested in starting a honey bee colony?
Purchase a nuc (nucleus colony) and get started!
A nuc is a small, established colony of bees with a queen, brood, and worker bees.
We will have a limited number of honey bee nucs available for sale during the 2024 season. Preparations are weather dependent, so it's important to act quickly if you're interested.
We will require a $50/nuc non-refundable deposit to reserve your nuc. In the rare event that we are unable to provide the nuc(s) your deposit will be refunded.
When your nuc(s) are ready for pick up, you'll receive an email or phone call. Nucs will be provided upon completion of payment. You will have 14 days to collect your nuc(s), after which they will be considered abandoned. The nucs will be supplied in our nuc boxes, which the deposit will then be transferred to a core deposit to ensure return of our boxes. The frames are for you to keep. Once the core(s) are returned you will then be refunded your deposit of $50/nuc.
We can also provide set up assistance!
We can come to your property and advise you on the best location for your hive(s), arrangement of your new hive(s) and hive maintenance. This service can also be added at the time of payment for your hive(s) for a total of $100 plus HST. (St.John’s metro and surrounding areas)
The 2024 season nucs can be purchased for a total of $350.
To secure your 2024 nuc(s) please follow the checkout link below.
