Coming soon! 5-Frame 2026 Overwintered Nucs - Deposit Reservation

This non-refundable deposit is a reservation request and commitment to purchase (payment on pickup by cash/card/check on pickup).  Pricing for 2026 is $250 with a marked late August 2025 queen, 5 frames of bees and resources in a plastic Pro Nuc box. PA sales tax is added when you purchase (provide us with a copy of a PA sales tax exemption form if applicable).

April nucs are colonies with marked (blue) late 2025 queens which overwintered in northern PA and show good laying patterns.

Pickup of nucs may vary if impacted by spring weather. The 5 drawn frames which may be plastic or wooden frames include a marked and laying queen, frames of brood, and resources.

OUR GUARANTEE:

If you follow our nuc install instructions, and you discover a problem with your nuc within the first four weeks (30 days), you can return the original nuc box with the bees and schedule a replacement nuc or your money back, or be given a replacement queen if that is determined to be the problem.
