Bees, in spring, emerge from winter hibernation and from this time we’re able to split hives to provide nucleus’ for our customers. These are provided from early spring to January, depending on availability.
Our nucleus hives are carefully nurtured, inspected and proven before handover. We have options for support and selected books for sale.
