Pre-Order: 2026 Carniolan Package Bees - CARLISLE PA

Please read the details:

• PICKUP ONLY CARLISLE, PA:  Late March expected, exact dates will be finalized as spring gets closer because of weather variables. We will contact you with pickup date when locked in (please provide a phone number and an email address when you order in case one does not work). This date is not recommended for farther north because of weather
• Each package is 3 lbs of bees with a mated and marked Carniolan queen
• These are quality bee packages!
• Discounts at 5+, 10+, 20+ packages 
• $5 discount per package for check or cash (contact us for total if writing a check)
• If you are tax exempt, we need a copy of your tax exemption form to exempt the sales tax (once on file with us, forms are valid for 3 years)
• Check the bees and queen before you leave, if there is an issue during pickup, we will give you a different package (BEFORE YOU LEAVE)
• Once you leave, the bees become your responsibility, and we ask you to please follow our package install instructions
• If possible, install the package on a frame or two of drawn comb (or more). A mite treatment (Oxalic Acid Dribble or Vapor is recommended) within the first 7-10 days after install is a good idea, as there is no capped brood for the mites to hide under
• Feeding these new bees until frames are drawn out and colony is well established is also high recommended

*We are licensed and inspected by the state of PA to sell bees and queens. Here is a page of beekeeping tips.
