Bees
Taking orders for 2025
Providing a source for locally selected bees was the primary reason we started
Bonnie Bee & Company.
First select the size of frames either four-frame nucs (nucleus colonies) on deep (9 1/8″) sized frames or five-frame nucs on super / medium (6 1/4″) sized frames. Pick up dates are either Saturday, April 26 or Saturday, May 10. Optional delivery and installation is available.
Please note these mandatory conditions of live sale:
You are responsible for knowing the day you have selected for picking up your bees. Bees that are not picked up on the date selected will be forfeited.
No refunds, cancellations, or date changes after April 1, 2025. You will be charged a $50 fee for cancellations or date changes prior to April 1, 2025.
We reserve the right to postpone pick-up dates if weather delays are a factor in queen mating.
Reminder: Nuc colonies are not compatible with Top Bar Hives or Warre Hives. We do not sell package bees.
Order here:
Saturday, April 26 medium frames
Saturday, April 26 deep frames
Saturday, May 10 medium frames
Saturday, May 10 deep frames
A few ideas for alternative bee sourcing options:
– Catch a swarm…or set up a swarm bait hive! Sign up to receive our newsletter for tips.
– Take a split from a friend’s colony. Don’t know how? We can help!
– Go to a Marin Beekeepers meeting and meet other local beekeepers who may have bees to share.
Thanks for helping to keep our bees local!
