Getting Your Bees Through The Winter

Thank you for your interest in our packages and queens. I'm excited about offering packages and queens for sale again this year. As you know I am very particular about providing quality queens. I've put together my "QUEEN DREAM TEAM" consisting of three of us that will be raising queens for 2019. Myself and two other highly respected and experienced beekeepers are working hard raising queens for 2019. CLICK HERE. 

The queens that we sell are not a specific "race" but rather queens that have been raised from selected northern colonies that we are proud of. Our queens are raised here in Illinois. As producers we are in compliance with the Illinois Department of Agriculture's rules and regulation regarding raising queens. All hives from which we are raising queens will have passed inspection for 2019.

I have never been able to produce enough queens to keep up with the demands for our queens but 2019 looks promising with the help of my "Queen Dream Team".
