Description

I’ve been raising queens since 2014 and have been perpetuating my best over-wintered queens. My bees stay in MN year round and I only graft from the hardiest, most gentle and productive queens that survive our winters. I am not a commercial migratory beekeeper, just a stationary sideline beekeeper. Perpetuating locally adapted Minnesota hardy bees is one of the keys to successful beekeeping here in MN.  See more about my queens here: Queens & Nucs
