Home of the CarolinaBee line of honey bees...
Just
wanted to let you know that the queen I purchased from you last year is
doing amazingly well. Many full frames of brood in that hive.

CarolinaBee Queens,
CarolinaBee Nucleus Colonies, and
Georgia Packages
CarolinaBee Queens and Nucs
From our breeding program, available May - August
The traits we select for...- Strong brood laying pattern.
- Survivability.
- A gentle, happy, bee-nature!
Our CarolinaBee line of queens and 5-frame nucleus colonies have been genetically selected over the years for survivability.
The bulk of our CarolinaBee genetics come from Italian honey bees with a healthy infusion of feral stock — honey bees adapted to our region, North Carolina1. In the end, our bees are mutts, which we think is a good thing . We are not so reliant upon strict pedigree. We are reliant on behavior and performance.
Availability: We only offer CarolinaBee queens and 5-frame nucleus colonies in May, June, July, and August. We do not frame swap with nuc purchasers.

- North Carolina and surrounding states -- Emphasis: the North Carolina piedmont and coastal plains.
- Guaranteed until the colony overwinters. Overwintering success involves so many variables that we can not extend a guarantee beyond the 1st productive year of a queen. We also do not guarantee against losses due to beekeeper error (of course).
- With an emphasis on beekeeping operations that follow our principles as closely as possible.
