We are now taking reservations for package bees!

We are now starting to take reservations for package bees. The "early Italians" from Rossman Apiaries in Georgia should arrive late March, and the Carniolans, Italians, and Saskatraz from Olivarez Honey Bees in California should arrive in mid-April.

Note: The “early Italian” bees are not intended for first year beekeepers! They arrive at a time when the weather can be dicey, when installation requires extra care.

We will be getting MARKED QUEENS in all our packages.

We will have information on nuc availability soon.

You can place your reservation for package bees by clicking below or via our website, see the category "Local Offerings", and then "Bees & Queens".

These packages will be available for pickup at our shop at  160A Sugar Street, Newtown, CT 06470.

We do NOT ship package bees.
