Locally Adapted Queens Built for North Carolina Beekeeping

Our queens are raised with a focus on local adaptation, calm temperament, and strong colony performance. We select from Italian and Carniolan stock refined with Golden West Queen genetics — chosen specifically for how they perform in our environment.

What You Can Expect:

• Calm, workable temperament

• Strong brood patterns

• Good population build-up

• Adaptation to local forage and climate

• Selected from actively managed colonies

How We Raise Our Queens:

All queens are raised within our own apiary using colonies that are actively evaluated throughout the season. We do not resell outside queens — every queen reflects our management and selection process.

Availability:

Queens are available seasonally throughout the spring and summer.

Spring 2026 availability is limited. Contact early to reserve.
